With the exception of Babbitt their handling of the puck was notably poor, although in speed they were about equal to the University. After three minutes of play Curtis got clear, but passed short to Baldwin, who was unable to score. Shortly after Baldwin caged the puck from the wing, but because of an offside the score was not allowed.

And we should be dull indeed if we did not profit by the experience of certain unprepared nations of Europe...

As for Germany and all the other European nations, which we are told will invade America after this war, is it not clear that modern warfare requires first a long period of nursing the economic, financial, and human capital of the intended aggressor? that Germany's present successes are due primarily to her 40 years' peaceful accumulations of these three, efficiently marshalled? and that the present war will effectually prevent Germany from effecting...
