...taken residence on the avenue among the barbers and tailors, the editors evidently intend to bring their magazine as close to the college as the editorial rooms are. The window display of pictures is a promising indication of the board's resolve to make the paper a sort of mirror of Harvard activities. This spirit is evident in the new number, although nothing is said about it; indeed, the only reference to the change in policy is an announcement that the next issue will appear on May 15.

...would be impossible to mirror public opinion in the University in an editorial column. A clearly defined public opinion does not exist, in the first place. That there are two sides to every question is an axiom too often lost sight of. No one supposes that because the CRIMSON says summer military camps or other more subtle forms of militaristic propaganda are bad, the whole University-to a man-solemnly echoes, "Yes, they are bad, very...

...souls! continue to obsess the undergraduate Extreme Left. In the very slender current issue of the Advocate we are blessed with a burlesque of Synge, a parallel sketch of "The Scottish Players," and, as a communication, a defence of "The Playboy." Acknowledging the fidelity of the Advocate as a mirror of what most engages the literary consciousness of undergraduates, when it is pointed out that an editorial paragraph discusses the Harvard Prize Play, and three other pages bristle with reviews of plays in Boston, this seems to be going a bit strong. Particularly as there is nothing else of special...
