...Attitude of the Early Christian Church toward Other Religions"--three lectures by Professor W. W. Rockwell '95 of Andover Theological Seminary...
Competition under present conditions has proved anything but satisfactory. The committee of ratification has not, as its advocates expected, done much toward solving the difficulty. As stated earlier in the year, the CRIMSON strongly favors election by the class, as the only alternative.

Experience seems to teach that if the undergraduate interest is turned away from athletic pursuits, it will turn toward social pursuits, at least emasculating, if not vicious. If, with the abolishment of winter sports, the interest does turn toward social things, the Faculty will find itself no better off. We may then look for rules limiting the number of times a month a man may go in town...
