...summer is of general interest. Applicants may formally join the Aerial Flying Reserve of the United States and have their instruction free, or they may pay a small tuition and receive the instruction to qualify for pilots' licenses. There will be many to take advantage of both offers, no doubt. For the knowledge of how to operate a flying machine is going to be greatly in demand in a very few years. --New Haven Register...
...first victory of the season last night by defeating the Boston Hockey Club 7 to 2, at the Arena.

There can be little doubt of the fact that the original mistake was made in organizing the Batteries as a part of the Connecticut National Guard; there can be little doubt of the futility of the whole mobilization of the militia, and of the total inadequacy of the militia system and of--lots of other things! There can likewise be no doubt of the fact that the members of the Batteries under command of Colonel Danford in New Haven and in Tobyhanna last summer did their work so creditably that the history of the organization and of the way Yale...
