That hardy annual -- the Yale game number of the Lampoon--is with us again, we see. And at an increased cost per copy, too. You can't blame Lampy a bit for that, though. With Yale tickets themselves going from two to two and a-half, it seems as if thirty-five cents is a small jump from a quarter...

...would seem as though the hardships of which American university and college professors complain are not a peculiar product of the American climate. The glaring discrepancy between the ever-rising cost of necessaries and a stationary remuneration for services recognized to be of the highest importance to the community is a world phenomenon...

...course the receiver of these signals has an equally important, though less spectacular part to play. At the Stadium Mr. Frank E. Belliveau takes my signals.

That the Student Council should summarily reject the plan does not suggest that they considered the matter too carefully. Constituted, as that body is, with a large proportion of its members being the Captains and Managers of the present major sports, it is not hard to observe their psychological effect on the body as a whole. We may suppose that...

...have died away. Tales of stark daring fall on ears that have heard hundreds of such tales before. The seamen of the "Suicide Squadron" will not get, and doubtless do not expect, the welcome that greeted those who returned earlier. Yet the world will be eternally, though silently, grateful to those men who, forsaking the paths of safety and even the comparative ease of showing bravery in the heat of battle, have quietly gone about their hazardous task. Theirs, unassuming and unadvertised, is the highest glory...
