THE TERRITORIAL CLUBS.

A year ago the CRIMSON called attention to the fact that the territorial clubs were rapidly sinking into the realm of defunct organizations. Apparently very little progress has been made since that time towards resuscitating these extremely valuable institutions.

The territorial clubs have two important offices to perform: first, to bring together men form the districts which they represent, and, secondly, to interest and aid prospective members of the University. Toward making Harvard a thoroughly-representative institution and as one of the most convenient means of disseminating information in regard to the University, these clubs have an important role to play, and every effort should be made to keep them alive.
