Coach R. E. Gross '19 plans to organize the Freshman dormitory hockey teams before the end of the week. That this was not done immediately after the cut in the 1922 squad, is due to the fact that there has not been enough continued cold weather to warrant the erection of a rink on the Charles River. This year Gore and Standish will be the only dormitories represented, as Smith Halls are not being used by Freshmen at present. The managers of the Standish and Gore teams will be appointed from among the candidates for the 1922 managership...
...advantage of the taker. Much criticism was heaped upon Mr. Roosevelt for his procedure, but he had to decide whether we would take possession of the ends of the railroad on the Isthmus and keep the traffic clear, or whether we would stand back and let those Southern gentlemen cut each others' throats for an indefinite time and destroy whatever, remnant of our property and our interests we had there. Roosevelt had to do exactly as he did, or the only alternative would have been an indefinite duration of bloodshed and devastation through the whole extent of the Isthmus...

Princeton will resume athletics on a pre-war basis but along more desired lines. Coaches are to be associated with the faculty through the department of physical education. Unnecessary expenses are to be cut down by curtailing extravagant salaries for coaches and the expense and extent of trips. "Secret practice" and "scouting" will be eliminated. The general decrease in the number of games to be played by any one team, and the reduction of the cost of admission to games for members of the competing colleges will be effected. It is planned to have three or four teams represent Princeton...
...League of Nations has, doubtless, suffered more from its friends than from its enemies. Those who are ready with cut and dried schemes of international organization, in which Costa Rica and England are equally represented, or in which the International Army drills constantly at the Hague, understand neither the spirit nor the necessity of the time. The vital thing, at the moment, is to train men, and particularly statesmen, to the realization that conference is a better method than war for the settlement of disputes. International Government is bound to grow slowly and to encounter every degree of hesitation...
