Dartmouth's victory has by no means sounded the death knell of the Harvard football season. Coach Fisher may yet develop a winning team from the wealth of potential material at his disposal. A distinct advance is anticipated against Tufts on Saturday, and Harvard hopes to be on equal terms with Princeton when it invades the Palmer Stadium on November...
...distinct feature for the band to form an H at the Yale game, or at important games for that matter, but to spend five minutes in complicated evolutions with no apparent end-- marching and countermarching to the monotonous rhythm of beating drums, is sure to inspire a feeling of weariness if not of disgust. There were few people who had a chance to compare the simplicity of the Dartmouth band's marching formation with Harvard's complexity, who did not feel that the former was dignified and the latter ludicrous rather than impressive.

His plays have been produced with varying success. Both as a dramatist and novelist he possesses, it seems to me, two distinct qualities: a feeling for the sweep and power of dramatic passion and an ability to analyze it- always cynically. It was interesting to watch him the other evening with Charlie Chaplin-Chaplin, mobile, eager, gay, as vivid as a flame and as naive as Peter Pan, yet somehow as subtle...
