...flooding of Holmes Field this winter suggested that the Athletic Association take the matter in hand. It seems to us, on the contrary, that the winning of the Mott Haven cup this year is enough for the Athletic Association to attend to, and that they would do wrong to spend their time or money for any purpose not directly conducive to that end.

I must apologize for taking up so much of your valuable space...
...reply has been very large indeed. To my surprise, out of a class of two hundred and thirty-five men actually in residence, two hundred and nineteen, or ninety-three per cent., have sent reports. Am I wrong in supposing that this very general "readiness to tell" is itself a sign of upright conduct...
