Instead of spending their weekly allowance to start a Glee Club, the Freshmen would get more satisfaction and honor if they would subscribe their share for the maintenance of the crew. While they do not wish to compare themselves YET with the Juniors (and I agree with X' 81 that any attempt to do so would be ridiculous in the extreme), they might at least take example from the Sophomore subscription, and emulate them...

There are a large number of students who have borne a prominent part in originating and carrying on the present troubles, who take no active share in Class Day, and do not help to defray its expenses. Such persons also constitute the majority of those who oppose the present plan...
