...year, and feel that an infantry unit should also have a place there." said Major-General Clarence R. Edwards in a recent interview with a CRIMSON reporter. "To be a successful infantry officer requires just as much training as to be a good artillery officer. In the artillery you deal with material, in the infantry with men, and to handle men well requires more training and experience than to fire a field piece or compute a range. I believe that the training of an infantry officer might well occupy a place in every college curriculum. In addition to the artillery...
...Mollusc" is a light comedy, with a weak, sentimental ending, but has the virtue of illustrating the all too prevalent type of character who struggles to stand still. In order to bring out this point, both the plot and the acting are a good deal over done.

...terrible to many persons as was the fear of eternal damnation to some of our forefathers. If these ideas can be educated out of minds of those who believe them, so that the ignorant man will know and believe that he will at all times get a square deal and that there is a power in the state that he can go to enforce that square deal, the future will need to have little fear of Bolshevism or any of the other isms. The legal aid movement is growing and those who are willing to make the sacrifice...
