...help the undergraduates, but the result of their efforts has been detrimental to the University. No college man wants to be "Mothered", still less does he hanker after fudge and a place where his buttons may be sewn on. Civilian life with all its freedom is quite a different thing from the restrictions of military or naval life. The well-intentioned ladies have misinterpreted the needs and requirements of the students...
Ardent support by the undergraduates is admittedly a prime factor in the success of any branch of college athletics, and is a thing to be fostered at all times. One class in the University has shown keen interest in backing athletics. The Freshman eight will accompany the University oarsmen to Annapolis tomorrow to meet the first-year boats of Princeton and the United States Naval Academy.

Frankly, we have been perhaps somewhat diffident when the delights of Bolshevism have been described to us. The whole thing seems too tame, too common-place for words.

Even the wildest extremes of Bolshevik art fail...
...continuance of German propaganda in this country. During actual hostilities most of us were keenly alive to the menace of German agents in America, but now that the armistice has been signed and the Imperial Government overthrown, we are prone to think that Boche propaganda is a thing of the past--which is not true by any means...
