Entered at Boston, Mass., Post-Office as Second Class Matter. Editorials We are sorry that the Sophomore num- ber lacks a frontispiece. We had intended to print a picture of the Sophomore class officers but as no election has yet been held, no picture can be taken. Therefore, the Golden Rod must appear without a frontis- piece. Predictions concerning the basketball team certainly ran true. After Reading had inflicted a rather severe defeat upon Quincy, the latter came back strong and supplied a brand of basketball worthy of our athletic position. In addition Quincy trounced Reading in one of the most spectacular and hair-raising games ever witnessed on our floor, thereby tying Reading for first place. With the exception of the game at Wellesley this game was the best of the season and brought forth the wildest enthusiasm from the rooters. Although we are loathe to harp upon the financial support given the Golden Rod the alarming decrease in the circulation of the Short Theme Number necessitates a renew- al of this subject. It is absolutely essential that we regain the circulation that we ac- quired in the first two issues. We urge you to buy your own Golden Rod. Don’t look over somebody else’s shoulder! Freshmen and Sophomores make up the deficit shown in your subscriptions! In glancing through the first four issues of the Golden Rod certain interesting facts are revealed. The first which attracts our attention is the part each class produces, that is, the number of contributions each class has proffered. More careful enumeration indicates that the Junior class leads in the number of articles published. The seniors follow closely, with the sophomores and freshmen trailing behind. Upon closer ex- amination, also, the number who have contri- buted two or more times is observed. The number of these individual contributors is about a dozen, which number consists of seven boys and five girls. Three have submitted articles three times, a Senior, a Junior and a Freshman, respectively. From this review it is evident that the Seniors have lost that bril- liant literary standing which they held last year. This is a lamentable situation which ought to be remedied. Of course, we hope the other classes will increase their literary sup- port and make the contest hotter. Freshmen! One of the remaining editions of the Golden
