On Monday night the Freshman class will be given its first opportunity to compete for the News and Photographic boards of the CRIMSON and the Junior class will be offered its last chance to enter a competition for the Editorial board. At 7.30 o'clock the candidates for all three boards will meet in the President's room in the CRIMSON Building on Plympton Street.
Work for the Editorial board will consist in writing on current topics of several sorts, those intimately connected with the University, those connected with education in general, and those having to do with the national and international affairs.
The Photographic board will furnish cameras to its candidates and does not require any previous experience. Candidates will be afforded the opportunity of learning the technique of dark-room work, as well as the routine of taking pictures.
The News competition will offer the Freshman class its greatest opportunity for the exercise of ingenuity and resourcefulness to be found in extra-curricular activities. Newsgetting in all its divisions affords the candidate experience in interviewing notables in and out of the University, in writing a journalistic style, and in learning the machinery of Harvard, in a manner not to be equalled elsewhere. Each candidate is a reporter, pursuing the same methods employed upon metropolitan dailies. Credit is given for each story written with extra credit for scoops, and a bonus for high scholarship.
