“Yale: Her Campus, Class
Rooms and Athleties.”
A book on Yale, written by Mr.
Camp, ’80, and Mr. Welch, ’80, is soon
coming from the press of Messrs. L.
C. Page & Co. of Boston. The title
of the book has recently been changed
so as to be more accurately descrip-
tive of the contents of the volume. The
plan of the book developed very con-
siderably while it was in process of
construction. The book will be en-
titled “Yale: Her Campus, Classrooms
From one end of the land to the other,
wherever men who demand the best are
found, Fownes’ Gloves are the recognized
standard of merit and fashion.
They are.
best for dress, for the street, for riding,
driving, or golfing — for all occasions and
all purposes.
To wear them is to be cor-
rectly gloved. All leading haberdashers
sell them.
~
and Athletics.” The sub-title describes
the divisions of the book in the order in
which they are prepared. Yale as a
place of work is considered from the
standpoint of a place one must live in
order to work in, next as purely a place
of intellectual work and lastly as a
place for athletic recreation.
The last division of the book,—that
of athletics, is, of course, written by Mr.
Camp. This consists of a general chap-
ter on Yale’s principle of athletic man-
agement, followed by a history of all the
events of each of the main branches of
athletics.in which Yale has been en-
gaged. These historical sketches are
supplemented by tables giving scores
of games, times of races and other de-
wet from the first down to the present
ay.
In describing the social side of Yale
a brief sketch is given of the general
experiences of one who goes through,
as an example, the Academic course.
After that, the different institutions of
Yale are taken up by a series of
sketches. These include the chapter on
the Prom, on the society system, on
graduate organization, on Battell
Chapel, on Dwight Hall, etc., etc.
In describing Yale as a place to work,
the different departments are sketched
from the standpoint of their systems of
instruction. The plan is to give in
simple and plain language the idea of
education in each.
After that, the different divisions of
-instruction like Philosophy, Political
and Social Science, and History are
sketched with a view of indicating their
particular features, with a brief state-
ment in each case about the principal
instructors and their records and
methods. The idea is a non-technical
survey of the general field of Yale
teaching.
In the first and second parts, the
historical element is incidental and
used only to explain or illustrate or
emphasize the present. The raw bones
of the history on both Yale’s social and
intellectual side are given in a series
of condensed chronological tables at the
end of each section.
