FROM SCHOOL TO STADIUM

Last night, two score undergraduates met to discuss the question of school clubs. Suggestions and much illuminating discussion resulted, which will undoubtedly aid the committee soon to be appointed to reorganize these clubs.

There was one point, however, brought out, which was of pressing importance. The assistant manager of the track team called attention to the coming Interscholastic Track Meet and to the fact that the management was having great difficulty in finding men who would agree to entertain the visiting runners. There are eighteen schools represented, he said, and of these, only six have clubs at Harvard. In closing, he suggested that here is at first hand an opportunity to reform the present attitude of undergraduates toward prep school men. Otherwise teams from the twelve schools which have no alumni organizations at the University, will have a cold welcome a week from Saturday.

It is hoped that the committee will be appointed soon enough and will act expeditiously enough to remedy this situaation. If not, it will be up to the individual members of these schools to aid the track management in entertaining the visitors. Whether the school graduates do this or not, these men must be given more of a reception than the impersonal shipment from school to Stadium, which has been accorded them in years past.
