Considering that the total for the whole drive is over $60,000, this small sum of $2896.50 shows that the non-resident undergraduates are far behind. This is due to the fact that the Endowment Committee finds it very difficult to get in touch with men not living in Cambridge. In spite of the fact that many are reached by telephone and promise to come in to the Crimson Building office to subscribe, very few actually appear, which necessitates telephoning again...
...requires that the taxes on the profits of one year shall be paid out of the earnings of the next. The fault of this is clearly demonstrated by the conditions now existing throughout the country.

Though his experience has been on a relatively small scale, nevertheless there is a good deal of similarity between these problems and those of larger magnitude that he will face in after life. Even though a candidate may not finally win election at the end of the competition, he has gained much and lost nothing by the experiment...
...Cowles, the Harvard Club Professional, is only able to give the small amount of time at his disposal to coaching the first and second squash teams, it has recently been arranged so that some one member of these two teams will devote his time on Tuesday or Thursday afternoons from 3 to 5 o'clock, to teaching inexperienced men to play. These two-hour sessions will be divided into twenty-minute periods, and all men who wish to take advantage of this opportunity to get free coaching, should sign up in the blue-book which is provided for this purpose...
