fice it to say that an incoming- Freshman class puts up a difficult challenge, not only to other college classes, but to all successors, in bidding them to measure up in pep, initiative, and ingenuity in the matter of entertain- ment. There is no more pardonable and wholesome rivalry possible than that between the classes in their ambitions each to contribute a social event that will live in memories of Auld Lang Syne. We shall not soon forget many pleasant and profitable chapel exer- cises during the year. Daily convocation affords a great meeting-point and is the clearing-house of student interests and activities. It promotes the get-together spirit as nothing else can do. In fact, it takes a little re- hgion to hai-monize all kinds of human interests. In the sphere of athletics the University has made a distinctly good record. Very creditable has been the co-operation of the Student Man- agement and the Coach with the Faculty in the effort to place our ath- letics on the highest plane of academic honor. Wfe are resolved that the problems and handicaps which beset us as a young institution in actualiz- ing our ambitions in intercollegiate contests, shall not induce us to juggle with established standards and ideals of academic sportsmanship. Fur- thermore, we cannot permit our chances for recognized championship to be jeopardized by permitting men to play on the team who do not have an academic standing- or whose playing only results in disqualifying the team for any recog-nition on the part of those institutions whom we desii- ' e to emulate. We are not primarily an athletic association incidentally con- ducting some education work. Rather are we an educational institution cultivating brawn as an accessory to brain. Spurious and spasmodic devo- tion to studies does not suffice for eligibility to a place on our teams.
