Excerpt from Brown Alumni Monthly, Vol. 28: April, 1928 We give up this issue of the Alumni Monthly very largely to accounts of the Alumni Advisory Board and Visiting Day meetings, confident that our readers will be eager to read them. Accordingly we condense the news of the month on this page. Delinquents Attention If those of our subscribers who are delinquent appreciated the difference their delinquency made to us they would pay up, we feel confident. The business manager asks the editor to say something urgent on this subject. So here goes. For our sakes if not for your own sakes, please send us the money you owe us. The Price of the Monthly In order to improve the Alumni Monthly, and especially to provide it with more pictures, the subscription price of the magazine will be $1.50 a year, beginning with the June number. Notes of the Month Recent additions to Brown University's Lincoln Collection make it beyond dispute the finest such collection in the world. The University will close on April 5 for the Easter vacation. The University athletic offices have been moved to the new gymnasium on Elmgrove avenue. A large lacrosse squad is expected this spring because of the elimination of spring football practice. Roy E. Randall '28, University football captain last fall, will coach the University of Virginia backfield squad next fall. The Brown Aero Club's plane. "Challenger," arrived late in February and the club went at once into training with it, under expert direction. Harry C. Lawton has been elected captain of the 1931 track team. His home is at Pekin, III., and his preparatory school is Moses Brown. The Brown Musical Clubs will make a 10-days trip early in April. The schedule: April 4, Waldorf Astoria Hotel, New York; 5, Lansdowne, Pa.; 6, Atlantic City; 9, Cleveland; 11, Detroit; 12, Buffalo (pending); 14, Troy. The poor showing of the Brown hockey team is directly attributable to the loss of seven men, including some of the best players in college. The loss was in part by reason of faculty discipline and in part because of withdrawal from college. On May 18-19 Brown will entertain the N. E. I. C. A. A. at a field and track meet in Providence. It is expected that 20 colleges will compete Last year Maine won at Brunswick with Brown tied with New Hampshire for seventh place. It is matter for great regret that R. R. Mackenzie '29, owing to absence from college for the first semester, is not eligible for the golf team this season. Eynon is also ineligible.

Holy Cross at Worcester. 21, Boston University. 25, Maine. 28, Holy Cross. On May 2 Bates comes to Providence, on May 5 Williams, and on May 12 Yale. Brown goes to Dartmouth May 8. At the Brown-Worcester track meet, March 10. J. S. Collier of Brown equalled the world's record for the 43-yard high hurdles - 5 4-5 seconds. Two other records for the new gym were established, Kearns '30 running 1000 yds. in 21 4-5 seconds and Captain Milde of Worcester 300 yds. in 34 4-5 seconds. The Brown Herald says editorially: "The increase in attendance at lectures on the campus and in other parts of Providence, the eagerness with which students purchase tickets for Symphony concerts, the enthusiastic enrollment in purely cultural courses, and the popularity of Sock and Buskin performances, all attest to the fact that athletics no longer hold dominion."
