Except for this article, the present number of the magazine looks rather like "Pages from a graduate's scrap-book." The table of contents is long, and the subjects varied, from the account of an astronomical expedition to South Africa to a description of the new Lampoon Building. Most of these articles are very brief; and the reader is likely to feel that a couple of more extended discussions of interesting subjects might well have replaced half a dozen or so of these smaller sketches. A few of these, however, are excellent, notably the article on the late William Everett...
...whole lends support to the movement. When this number is looked at without comparison it appears large, but, if it is considered in connection with the student body as a whole, it is remarkably small. With over 4000 graduate and undergraduate students in the University, it seems rather, thoughtless and selfish that scarcely more than one-fifteenth should be willing to devote an hour or two a week to work which does so much unquestionable good...
Each year, or rather several times each year, the captains of various athletic teams have to publish appeals in the CRIMSON requesting that roving bands of College youths should cease to make the nights hideous by making catcalls and bellowing snatches of what were once songs.

For they make the noise for one of two reasons; either because they wish people in the vicinity to think that they are devil-may-care, hard-drinking fellows, or they are men who really have been indulging...
...attendance at the meeting of football men held in the Union last night was rather poor, only about 50 men reporting. Captain Withington outlined the plans for work for the rest of the spring and during the summer, and especially urged all the men to be in good condition when they come back for preliminary practice in the fall. This practice will probably began about September 19. Coach Haughton, after speaking for some time on the new rules, urgently requested every man at the meeting to come out for the light practice which will begin Monday...
...even with the University boat for a short while, but by the time the Harvard Bridge was reached, the University eight was leading by a little open water. Up to this point, the University crew had been rowing in fair form; below the bridge, rough water made the rowing rather ragged, though this did not affect the University crew as much as the Freshmen. The average stroke for both eights in the middle of the race was between 33 and 34; the University care finished with a lead of about three lengths of open water, rowing 38 strokes...
