The competitions will mean hard work, but without it there would be lacking the training and experience necessary to develop competent editors. The work is not so hard as to interfere seriously with studies, as a glance at the records will show. If a man is not able to handle both, the fault...

Lukewarm cheering, poor attendance, lack of interest in the games inevitably have an effect on the team.

It is probable, however, that he will not attempt to run both the dashes and the 440, so that the race should develop into a battle between Stevenson of Princeton, Driacoll of Boston College, Roy of Rutgers, Koppisoh of Columbia, John of Cornell, and Williamson of Stanford Stevenson is at present the national champion, while Driscoll is known as a great fighter with an ability to finish strong...
