‘‘ Outing’s? New Career.
The new management of Outing, un-
der Mr. Caspar Whitney as editor, and
an Advisory Board consisting of C. C.
Cuyler, S: Ri Bertron, Siok, Houston,
T. D. M. Cardeza, David M. Goodrich
and Walter Camp, shows new life and
the magazine is distinctly more inter-
esting. Its progress will be watched
closely for it is its aim to occupy a field
not hitherto exploited in a successful
way. It is too early to judge of the
present policy. There is undoubtedly
a good field, of uncertain size, for a
publication which will treat the different
phases of sport and recreation from the.
standpoint of presenting something in-
teresting. Instruction has already been
overdone in many publications.
The old tone of aggressive opposition
{to signs of professionalism in amateur
athletics and particulary in college ath-
letics, is shown in Mr. Whitney's de-
partment, covering the month’s review.
That the present editor of Outing has
done in the past some excellent work in
this line, even his most severe critics
will admit. That there is the danger of
becoming known as a consistent fault-
finder, is attested by the experience of all
reformers. It is the hope. of the
ALUMNI WEEKLY that this department,
as far as it relates to college sports, will
be not only fearless, but that it will lead
and encourage as well as attack and de-
stroy. The time has-been when such
criticisms as Outing now. contains have
‘lost their effect because the objects of
them have been able to defend them-
selves behind a more or less general sen-
timent of displeasure or weariness. It
is always difficult to judge an athletic in-
cident with perfect fairness and many
have wondered whether such frequent
criticism as has been indulged in could
always be supported by most competent
witnesses. The field is very wide; the
circumstances of each case _ peculiar.
Great care is necessary.
This is talking frankly, but criticism
is of no use unless it is frank. The
wish of the WxkeEkty is for the greatest
possible success of Outing and for its
increasing good influence on amateur
sport.
Another Handsome Record.
The Class of 1867 must also be en-
tered in the competition for the dis-
tinction of producing the most complete
and the handsomest Yale Class record.
A short paragraph was written a few
weeks ago about the record of the Class
or Sixty-Two-. Phe last’ record ot
Sixty-Seven had not, we confess, come
under our eye. Without taking back
any of the good things said of the
Sixty-Two book, it must be admitted
that it is practically impossible to pass
the record made in the book of Sixty-
Seven. The same system of two por-
traits, one that of college and one the
latest, is used in the case of most
members. The very complete history of
each man and the special tables of sta-
tistics, carries the book to nearly 400
pages.Nothing is omitted in the record
of the Trigintennial meeting. The
frontispiece is a very good picture of
the Class group at Osborn Hall. The
WEEKLY is indebted to Mr. Davenport
for a copy of the Record, which is very
much appreciated as an addition to the
library. The Class Secretary of Sixty-
Seven is William H. Morse.

A Roger Sherman Tablet.
The Hon. Simeon E. Baldwin, Yale
61, has placed in the United Church in
New Haven, a tablet in memory of his
ancestor, Roger Sherman, Yale M.A.,
1768, who served as Treasurer of Yale
College from 1765 to 1776. The inscrip-
tion reads as follows: :
1721 IN MEMORY OF ROGER SHERMAN 1793
A member of this Church from 1761
until his death
He served this City as its first Mayor,
Yale College as its Treasurer
The colony and state as an assistant
and judge of the Superior Court and the
Supreme Court of Errors |
The ree arupes as a member of
every Congress trom I to I
When he died a Seas, fe
One of the Committee which drew up
the Declaration of Independence
One of that which reported the Articles
of Federation
Of the Convention that framed the Na-
tional Constitution |
And the signer of these three charters
of American liberty
“Songs of All the Colleges.”
“Songs of All the Colleges,’ from
the press of Hinds and Noble, New
York, is the title of the latest compila-
tion of colleges songs, which has been
prepared by David B. Chamberlain
of Harvard, and Karl P. Harring-
ton of Wesleyan. There are in all 172
songs in the book, which have been
gathered with considerable care, and
well-arranged and harmonized, each
song having a separate page. Many of
them have a well-balanced piano ac-
companiment. A large number of the
old songs, familiar to college men
everywhere, and typical of no particular
college or section of the country, are
printed, as well as a few songs which
are typical of each of the older of the
eastern institutions. The book, taken
as a whole, gives a very fair idea of the
standard of American college music and
shows it on a higher level than previ-
ous compilations of the same sort have
shown it. There is still too much chaff
among the wheat, however, and the
genuinely good tunes which permit a
hearty expression of the healthy senti-
ment every college man should feel for
his Alma Mater, are too few. The new
publication gives Yale three songs, only
two of which are distinctly of Yale—
“Alma Mater,” and “Bright College
Years.” “Bingo,” also printed, is not
Yale’s alone. This emphasizes the
singular fact that Yale has few good
songs suitable for general singing.
The book, which is nine by eleven
inches in size and sells for $1.00, is
neatly bound in dark green buckram.
The only thing that mars an otherwise
excellent production is a drawing on
the front cover, stamped in red and
cream, representing the heads of a sing-™
ing quartet of capped and gowned stu-
dents, whose contorted faces are any-
thing but artistic. The fragments of
songs surrounding the faces have the
notes on the wrong side of the stems.
