...demeanor and politics, is he. As a young dentist, he read economics and sociology. In 1916, politics claimed him. Twice defeated, for Congress by Andrew J. Volstead and for Governor by J. A. O.

The passing was far below the standard to be looked for in mid-season and the long range shooting inaccurate. The play of three of last year's championship Freshman skaters, Tudor, Crosby, and Stanley gave the Crimson supporters added cause to hope for a winning sextet.
