The negligence of some men in college has made it necessary for the Committee of the Faculty on Athletics to send out a second circular urging them to answer the questions which were sent to them a week ago. Such thought-lessness on the part of the men is absolutely inexcusable. When the faculty is making an earnest effort to get at the root of the athletic question, the least that men can do is to co-operate with it fully and frankly. We think there are few students for whom this vital question does not have some interest; if there are any for whom it has none, shame for the fact ought to make them conceal it. Answers are still wanting from two hundred men. If they cannot take the trouble to reply to the questions in the circular, the work of the committee is almost useless. If they are lacking in public spirit and a desire to see the best interests of Harvard advanced, at least let them regard the demands of common courtesy enough to answer in some way the circular sent to them.
