THE H. A. A. NEWS

For the firs time since its inception two years ago the H. A. A. News gives, in its current issue, a full explanation of the function it strives to fulfill in the life of the University. According to its own editorial statement its chief purpose to act as an authentic organ for the voicing of H. A. A. policy." With such an object in mind the News should greatly increase its value this year to all Harvard men, both alumni and undergraduates.

The statement of the News editors quoted above is, of course, by no means startling; it was thoroughly to be means expected that the policies voiced by the News would be those of the H. A. A. officials. To have these policies clearly expressed and generally understood, however, is an object of sufficient value to give the H. A. A. News, so long as it lives up to its expressed intention of avoiding "the ballyhoo type of publicity", an important place among Harvard publications.
