...open to question. The fact that there has been a "frequency of fatal accidents" in Princeton is not common to that town alone. The law, by establishing an age limit which happens to be under that of the average undergraduate, has apparently given the student a legal right to drive a car. Therefore in forbidding automobiles at Princeton on the count of reckless driving, the university appears to take the stand that pursuit of learning and not tender years is responsible for accidents. Such perverse application of results of modern education is hardly plausible, even from a rigid dean...
...that skidded past the net, right into Stanley, waiting in front of the cage. From a cluster of Green defense men, the Crimson substitute slipped the disc through and past Bott for the first score. In the second stanza, Coady took the puck down center ice, and his crashing drive straight into the heart of the Green goal gave the Crimson its second score...

Morrill, however, blocked the work of this combination except once in the last period, when Vaughan came in fast and knocked in the rebound...

From 11:00 a. m. to 11:15 a. m. flower girls would not sell flowers, tram drivers would not drive their trams, many bank clerks banged shut their windows, and all telegraphs, telephones and radios were silent. Only taxicab drivers, irrepressible, defied the general strike order and buzzed back and forth with their fares...
