Before referring the matter, the Committee discussed the question and considered the recommendations of the Student Council that a war-time "H" of slightly smaller size be given to all members of major and minor teams who should be considered eligible for insignia by the Council. Dean Briggs, Dean Yeomans, Captain F. J. Moore '93, C. H. Pennypacker '88, of the Boston Latin School, and A. F. Tribble '19, the five members present, decided that no decision could now be made, as Tribble was the only undergraduate member attending. The men in whose hands the question of giving insignia...

This acknowledgement should be of a special kind, to exist only for the duration of the war, and to be superseded by the regular insignia when peace comes and the University resumes its natural course. Whether the change should be to decrease the size of the letter or modify it in some other way is not so important at the moment as the need of some definite action.

...startling fact that out of the large number of men who will return to college next year only about 200 have as yet signed up for the University Summer Camp. There is no doubt that the small size of this number is largely due to the same deadly habit of procrastination that impels an undergraduate invariably to hand in a thesis in the last half-hour of the allotted time; according to the recent order of Major Flynn such men, if they wait after next Friday, will merely find themselves debarred from positions as officers or non-coms, when...
