...soldiers who fought in the war were those who first made the attempt to solidify the Union, and foremost among these was one who took for his motto, which is now indelibly engraved over his tomb at Riverside, 'Let us Have Peace...
...Among other things, the victory showed that Harvard has two of the best track coaches in the country. We knew all along that Coach Quinn would develop some good men in the field events, but Coach Donovan had never been in charge of a Harvard track team before this spring. The result is as much of a triumph for him as for the members of the team, for without a good coach it is certain that no such good showing would have been made. It is encouraging to know that both coaches and most of the men on the team...
...meets which the different colleges have held this year and from the records of the individual performers, first place seems likely to go to Harvard, Yale, or Cornell. Princeton, Pennsylvania and Michigan are closely matched for fourth place. There are a great number of unusually good men, however, among the entries from the smaller colleges, who may win a large number of points. The University team relies on seven or eight excellent performers to win the majority of Harvard's points, while Yale and Cornell have more evenly balanced teams. Looking at the three teams from this point of view...

Rand will have to be at his very best to beat Dwight of Princeton and Talcott of Cornell for second. The points will probably be divided among these four, unless Robbins, of Yale has improved remarkably. In the low hurdles Gardner has an excellent chance of reversing the results of two weeks ago by winning from Howe. It is not at all unlikely that the former will win. For third and fourth places the most prominent competitors are Rand of Harvard...
