...Michigan contest is arousing much interest in the West. Michigan, which was a close rival with Chicago for the leadership of the conference before its withdrawal in 1905, ranks very near the top among the middle western teams. The outcome of the game may therefore be fairly taken as indicating the respective merits of eastern and western football. Because Michigan is a more representative institution, the clash with Harvard will be more significant in this respect than the contest between Notre Dame and the Army, or between Notre Dame and Yale...

Concrete expression of this sentiment was given in the submission of a bill to Congress during the past winter for the establishment...
...aquisition of the Peirce Collection by the Harvard Commission on Western History brings to the University exceedingly rare and valuable sources of information on the history of the Mormon people and their part in the movement of the colonization of the West. The significance of the anonymous donor's gift can be better appreciated when it is realized that whether the student is inquiring into the history of the remarkable development of an extensive region of our western country or is interested in the history of a religion which formed and developed within the lifetime of men living, this Library...
