...Training houses and training tables must go. They are the clearest evidence of a professional spirit. In proportion as they are emphasized the college athlete becomes less of the student. To say that he requires a special food, better food than his fellow student gets because he is an athlete leads to an absurdity. To take him out of his daily life as a student, house him separately, force him to go to bed every night at a definite hour, develops in him no qualities of self-discipline whatever. If he won't do this as an individual...
...military aviator must have his meteorological facts presented in the simplest, clearest, and most practical way. Meteorology is but a small part of the varied and highly complex information which is necessary in his exacting and dangerous occupation. Theories should be omitted altogether, and explanations, except of certain essential facts, are unnecessary.

...young, Germany has an extraordinary vitality; and it is not too much to say that, among these many efforts only in the universities is the place of this vitality taken by the vivacity and industry of women; in the universities and high schools the nation shows the clearest signs of the spur.

What was seen clearest of all was that the 1913 Harvard team needs the services of an accurate punter. The University team, aside from showing a lack in this department, gave very little idea of what may be expected of it ultimately, for it was at no time hard pressed, the visitors never getting...
...Especially are the men who have twelve o'clock lectures urged to report, for although the cheering will commence at five minutes before one, the team does not leave until ten minutes past the hour. As this is the last time that the team will see the undergraduates, the clearest impression of them which the eleven will carry to New Haven will be formed today. Every man who appreciates the industry and devotion of team and coaches should be present without fail to send with the eleven convincing proof of his individual support. Let the last cheering be the best...
