Complaints are often heard that the students know nothing of what becomes of the money received by the Athletic Clubs, particularly by the baseball and football associations. The above tables give a full, accurate and official report of the detail of expenses and receipts in all lines of athletics during the last year, and are particularly valuable as a matter of reference.

It will be particularly interesting to compare these figures with those which will be published in the first report of the new graduate manager and treasurer. They will afford thus an opportunity of judging to what extent the new scheme of management has been a success in reducing the expenses, not only as a whole but in each particular department. There is doubtless a considerable waste of money at present as shown by the total expenditures, which are extravagant in many details.
