...premising its definition of good criticism and over-looking the fact that, besides the destructive, there is an appreciative criticism often as illuminating as the work itself, falls into the error of condemning the good for the sins of the bad. The second editorial, an appeal to the serious minded for a right understanding of the "College butterfly," is very seasonable. The longer contributions are all in prose with one exception, "The Two Wreaths," a poem in three stanzas, delicate in thought and unfaltering in rhythm. "Philanthropists Unwitting" would read better if it were not curiously reminiscent of an earlier...
...relief of the present congestion of courses in the morning hours. The committee is considering the question of the entire tabular view of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. The chief difficulty lies in the arrangement of undergraduate courses in the College. The graduate hours are not open to serious objection, and, owing to the fact that most of the scientific courses do not offer any considerable number of electives, the Scientific School programme presents a comparatively simple problem...
Although the present intercollegiate strength test has done much to raise the standard of strength and physical efficiency in the colleges participating, it is open to several serious objections. In the first place, the expense of the dynamometers and other instruments used in making it, restricts its use to the few colleges--and institutions which can afford the necessary apparatus. Other objections are the great strain brought to bear in the lifting tests upon small groups of muscles, and the increased blood pressure caused by holding the breath during the effort of lifting. An even more serious objection...
Both games will probably be harder than any of the previous ones this year. The absence of Story, Linehan, and Randall, who will be unable to accompany the team on account of examinations, will be a serious handicap. With Gilles at right forward, however, the team should be somewhat steadied in spite of the fact that he has played only two nights. K. Smith at centre is the weakest player at present, partly on account of his changing from forward to centre. Bigelow, substitute for Story at left forward, is not up to his usual standard. Most of the work...
...ought to find some way to improve a system which is subject to two such serious objections. The Freshman class ought to consider the matter very carefully. Why would it not be a great change for the better if the class of 1906 should adopt a constitution previous to their class election which should provide that no man elected to office before the third annual meeting of the class should be eligible for re-election at the expiration of his term. This would bring the class to its Senior election with a variety of candidates more or less trained...
