Coach Leary has had charge of the training of the University ends for seven years. He has worked under Haughton while the latter was head coach here, and has probably a better understanding of the "Haughton system" than any other man. He was field coach of the University team in 1916, and was in complete charge during the early part of the season while Haughton was still away. Business reasons were given as the cause of Leary's inability to coach next fall...
...lists which have appeared in the frolics of the club for almost a century and a quarter. Curious enough it seems to learn that Joseph H. Choate, Charles Francis Adams and Phillips Brooks, all had their parts in the Pudding plays of older days. We like them all the better for the fact. Mr. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, of the United States supreme court, the Hon. Hamilton Fish, Judge Robert Grant, Robert Bacon, the roster is long of those who in their time capered in the Pudding shows. We smile as we notice that Thomas Mott Ocborne once played Helen...

Nearly all of the other first-string pitchers have been troubled with sore arms, but are now in better condition after several days of rest this week. R. W. Emmons '20 will be unable to play, and N. H. Kerr '19 will replace him at shortstop. The latter is a clever fielder and was the most reliable hitter on his Freshman team...
...relations between advisor and advisee could very well be made more important. If the student discussed not only the courses he proposes to take, but why he wants to take them and what his interests are, he would be in a far better position to choose.

There are about half a dozen professors and instructors who meet students informally at definite hours in their homes, and their courses stimulate a larger number of undergraduates than do others. At present, some men go through College without talking to a single...
...cope with as the first. It is none other than that old bogy, the apathy of many college men toward athletics, and a non-realization of the real and permanent good to be obtained from any form of physical sport steadily pursued. The situation in this regard is much better than formerly, but there is still much room for further improvement. That by far the greatest interest in sports is taken this year by Freshmen is a good sign. But why does the general athletic interest slacken after Freshman year? We can now justly assure the graduate that athletic advantages...
