'90 has made a mistake, and a bad one too. Luckily we have discovered it in time to enlighten the ignorance which caused it, and by following our advice, all evil consequences may be avoided. Our present freshman class has done an unheard-of thing; it has neglected to join the H. A. A. We quote the following extract from the by-laws of the Athletic Association. "No member of the university shall be permitted to witness any sports unless he be a member of the association." To make no mention of the handicap meeting, it will thus be seen how near '90 came to finding itself barred not only from witnessing, but also from competing in its own games. As a membership ticket to the H. A. A. is good as long as its owner lives, and admits to the Winter Meetings in the gymnasium as well as to those on Holmes Field, it seems needless for us to advise all freshmen who have not already joined, to do so immediately. The secretary is to be found at 19 Matthews, Tuesdays, 10-11 and Thursdays, 12-1.
