Figuring on probable line-ups, the two teams seem to be about equal in strength. Cool, the Cornell centre, who is, the lightest man in the visiting line, will have his greater experience to offset Taylor's weight; in Anderson and Miller, Dadmun and Cowen will meet two veteran guards who each tip the scales to over 200 pounds, while the new Ithacan tackles may be at a slight disadvantage in opposing veterans Gilman and Parson.

The prepared country would moreover, lose all the advantage of its preparedness through the delay...
...excited, would for a moment have thought of risking war with all the other powers. They would have done just what in that case was done, submitted the whole matter in dispute to arbitration, and even if the decision had proved distasteful, passion would have had such time to cool that the result would in all probability have been accepted, or the parties would have agreed upon a compromise...
