I have been asked to speak to the stu- dent oody, through the medium of the "Tripod," respecting the recent action of the Athletic Advisory Board. \Vhat that action is may already be known in a general way :-After a careful examination of the financial situation, weighing what we have and are likely to get against what we owe and shall have to spend, we find that present obligations can probably be met , carrying us thus to the end of the football season. The question then arise;;: What is to be done after the football season? Are there to be any baseball games, any track meets, any basketball con- tests?

Good Prospects for Game With Wor- cester "Polytech" To-morrow. Trinity has very bright prospects of winning the football game to-morrow against Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The only difference between to-morrow's game and last Saturday's being that Donnelly, one of the strongest men on the team, has not yet recoverd from the injury to his knee received in the Stevens game. Trinity, as a general rule, has beaten Worcester and last year an especially large score was run up. Worcester has played Tufts this year, being beaten 28 to o, but very little can be judged from this as we have not met Tufts on the gridiron in a great many years. The team as a whole is in very good condition, so we have a right to look for Trinity's second victory in foot-· ball this year, to-morrow. ' The "Tripod" ha s obtained the prob- able lineup of the Worcester team and. their respective weights, from the Worcester football management.

DR. McCOOK'S LETTER.

dent oody, through the medium of the

"Tripod," respecting the recent action

of the Athletic Advisory Board.

\Vhat that action is may already be known in a general way :-After a careful examination of the financial situation, weighing what we have and are likely to get against what we owe and shall have to spend, we find that present obligations can probably be met, carrying us thus to the end of the football season.

TO ALUMNI. THE TRIPOD is published for the Alum·

ni even more than for the U ndergrad­uates. With this in mind we are striT· ing to produce a paper which shall be interesting and necessary to Graduatee, and also to reach as large a number aa possible. We are very largely depend· ent on the Alumni both for our moral and financial support. If you are not already a subscriber will you kindly cin this matter your attention?

"NOW THEN-TRINITY!"

EDITORIAL.

The "Tripod" extends most hearty .congratulations to Dr. Luther on his nomination to the senate. Trinity men must work earnestly at the co;,ing elec­tion and we will place our President where he will be a credit both to the state and the college.

The board of the "Tripod" are try­ing to maintain a cheerful attitude in regard to the paper's financial prospects this year, but the problems which are to be faced are at present disagreeable, to say the least. Almost two hundred graduates have subscribed so far, but if we are to pay expenses we must have at least five hundred. The college has thirteen hundred alu.mni and we feel that we are not asking too much in expecting .five hundred of these to be loyal enough and interested enough to support an organization which is work­ing so earnestly and, we feel, . aside from finances, so successfully, for the college.

Elsewhere m this issue is printed a communication from Dr. McCook, who is a member of the Athletic Advisory Committee. It is self explanatory and every undergraduate can see what is necessary. However, the "Tripod" wants to add its plea. There are very few of us, here in college, who cannot make a few sacrifices, forego a few pleasures, , and join the Athletic Association. Any man who can do so and does not, ought to be ashamed to look his fellow stu- ' dents in the face.

THE TRINITY TRIPOD.

The class of 1909 has attracted much attention to itself by formally abolish­ing hazing. The action has created a great stir about college and the opinions as to its advisability are many and varied. 19o6 was the last class to take such -a step, and many of the 1907 men in college are dubious about the efficacy of decisions of that sort. However, we believe that 1909 means to carry this out thoroughly and not in the letter of ·the resolution only.

,----------------------~ The Connecticut Mutual Life

Insurance Company, HARTFORD, CONN.,

Wliy should I insure my life/ Because it is a debt you owe to

those who are dep,endent upon your earnings for their support.

You admit that it is your duty to supply their needs from day to day, but forget that it is equally your duty to provide an ever ready and sufficient equivalent for your earn­ing power, which your family ~tands in constant Jeopardy to lose by your premature death.

Guard your family against dis­aster and yourself against depend­ency in old age.

When should I insure my life/ Now! The cost will never be

less, and tomorrow you may not be able to obtain insurance at any price.

Even if others are not now de­pendent upon you, take time by the forelock and you will be the better able to meet future responsibilities, and at a smaller premium.

Where shall I insure my life/ In a purely Mutual Company. In a company that earns, de­

clares, and pays annual dividends. In a company that is doing a

conservative business. Such a Company is The Con­

wecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company of Hartford, Conn. It furnishes perfect protection at lowest cost.

For further information, address the Company, or any of its agents.
