...real determination to win. Although the competitions are very severe, candidates are expected to maintain a proper standing in their studies in spite of the extra work required of them. As a matter of class pride and spirit the members of 1915 should do their share in supporting the particular undergraduate activity the CRIMSON represents, and it is to be hoped that a large number of Sophomores will report for the competition starting this evening...
...first time, twenty-three members of the class of 1914 are on probation because they have failed to pass an oral examination in French or German. The question very naturally arises as to the reason for the precedent of inflicting probation merely for failure to pass in one particular requirement. Formerly probation has always meant deficiency in scholarship. According to the University regulations a student is place on probation if he has failed of promotion because he has not passed in a sufficient number of courses during the year.

This placed the ball on the second's 40-yard line from where a series of rushes brought a touchdown with Brickley carrying the ball. Hitchcock kicked the goal. Score: University 7, Seconds...
...return were given a mile race. The Freshmen rowed a slightly higher stroke and gained the lead only to lose it a quarter mile from the boathouse, when both crews raised the stroke to 35. Both eights are going very well at present, the Freshmen in particular are showing fine form as compared with past Freshman crews. The rhythm and time of the University crew are much improved and the fault of clipping the catch at a high stroke has been to a large extent eliminated...
