previous training the boys received in the Academic Athletic Association The Regents are beginning to see the importance of this department of col- lege activity and made considerable though inadequate appropriations for track improvements. Under the judicious management of Mr. Magee this money has been used to the best advantage. The organization of the Athletic Association of the University was a move in the right direction and promises to do much for the advancement of athletic interests. o o o AND now the BLUE AND GOLD is finished and we lay aside our festive editorial pen with a genuine sigh of relief. If anybody has read this far in our editorial ebullition, he will have already smelled the midnight oil. We didn ' t write the editorials to be read, but simply as a matter of form, so we shall not feel slighted if you pass tnem by. We are aware that we shall be severely criticised, but then we can ' t help it. It is of course impossible to please everybody. If we have trodden on any of your toes, it was not with malicious intentions, but because your toes happened to be just where we had to tread, so don ' t judge us too harshly. We were unfortunately deprived of the expected assistance of Miss Gilmore and Mr. Hixon, who were obliged to leave college. A ay marked deficiency in the book may be attributed to the absence of this lady and gentleman, whose valuable services we regret to have lost. We desire to acknowledge the assistance of several of the students and members of the Faculty, whose names do not appear on the editorial staff. We now resign in favor of our successor ninety- four ' s BLUE AND GOLD wishing for them a most brilliant success. . 12
