...venting my somewhat congested emotions concerning the limitation of the Freshmen to one ticket for the Yale game. That the Freshmen should be the victims of a shortage. I can understand, though it would hardly seem to promote the much cherished college spirit. What does interfere with my vision is the seeming unfair play of the Athletic Association.

In its conditions of award, purpose, and income, it corresponds closely to a Rhodes scholarship, but it is limited to students of Cambridge University. Many more such funds are needed, and their...
...behalf of the members of our Class, wish to extend our deepest sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. George S. Parker on the loss of their son, Richard Perkins Parker. We knew him as a fellow officer and found him loyal, keen of mind, and broad of vision. We knew him as a friend and learned, as did all his friends, to love and to respect him, to hold his friendship as one of our most precious possessions...
