...shortening the season, I will pass over the fact tat it would not allow the team enough time to develop to its full capacity. It would mean playing five games where now we play eight with the result that there would only be two games before Princeton in which to try out new material, give men experience and confidence and get them working together, and pick a team. The Princeton game would lose its importance and would be merely an ordinary mid-season game, while our friendly rivalry would only exist with Yale. However, looking upon it from the practical...
...points outlined in the platform, we fear that Mr. Reynal has a very different idea of the purpose of football from our own.

The difficulty, of course, under any elective system is to make public service a career for any people, but efforts are under way to make the offices adaptable as a life work...
...that there is grave danger in Europe of another war, on account of the clash of interests between France and England in the treatment of Germany. "The interests of France are political. She wants to hem Germany in, in such a way that the latter cannot develop economically. England wants Germany to regain her industrial strength so that England may replenish her resources with German trade. If these two policies cannot be reconciled, there may be serious trouble...
