ASTONISHING CUTTING.

Any men who were inclined to make light of the statements made frequently last spring of the general lack of attention to collegiate duties on the mornings of football games will be interested in the announcement of the Student Council published on another page. The figures show an alarming amount of cutting of twelve o'clock appointments on the mornings of the Carlisle and Dartmouth games. There was an average of sixteen cuts in the ten courses held at twelve o'clock on the day of the Indian game, and an average of almost twenty-three cuts on the day of the Dartmouth game. In one course, and not the largest course in College by any means, no less than eighty men cut before the Dartmouth game. This is no record to boast of from the standpoint of undergraduate zeal in things intellectual and it is to be hoped that a better record will be made this year. The Council is right in its statements and should be supported.
