...Princeton football game will be the only big contest played in Cambridge this year, the cheering section will form the white "H" on a red background when the "Marseillaise" is sung in the Stadium Saturday, as has been done at recent Yale games.

Track needs material more than any other major sport this year. The track team's chances for a successful season depend largely on the early interest of the men. It is going to be necessary to develop point winners from comparatively inexperienced material, so an early and a vigorous start is important.

Wood, Jr., in "Short, Sweet and Bitter" do not succeed so well in following the difficult master. Both attempt what few people can accomplish skilfully in clearing...
