...elections were unanimous. The treasurer's report for last year was not read, but the ex-assistant treasurer stated that the debt of the club had been increased about $1,200 during the past year, and that it would require $4,000 to pay off the debt and support the crew for '76-'79. Last year was necessarily a very expensive one.

Several of the societies have so large expenses that the proper management of their funds requires a considerable degree of financial experience. It has been the custom from time immemorial to appoint to the office of treasurer some student whose life has, until that moment, been divided between study and play, and whose time is generally pretty thoroughly occupied without his financial duties. The result of this arrangement is that, although no instance...
