The morning mail brings an article by a gentleman who claims college sport concentrates too much on a few highly specialized gladiators and encourages the vast majority of the undergraduates to sit in the grand stand. Please comment.

I can't comment today. Today I've got to iron out a jam arising from the fact that more boys want lockers in Schoellkopf than there are lockers. Then a scheme must be worked out whereby the lacrosse squad—varsity, freshman, and intramural—may have an adequate place to play without mussing up intramural baseball on the one side and without getting speared by the infant class in javelin throwing on the other. Afterwards plans must be passed for a new toboggan house at Beebe Lake. The old house is too small and it's falling down anyway. Comment!

All the situation now requires is to have someone call a conference to do away with overemphasis on over-emphasis.
