...Religious Union in Phillips Brooks House on "The Attitude of a College Man to the Church." There are, he said, many men today, especially young men, who are interested in religion and who are leading a Christian life, but who are indifferent to the Church. This indifference is sometimes due, in part, to a survival of the older conception of the church. At present, however, the church is emphasizing increasingly the work of social service, and it may fairly be asked whether a man having this purpose at heart can afford to neglect the great possibilities offered by membership...
...question is not one that calls for balancing past good results with past evil results. The discussion concerns a general tendency. Moreover, much of the good claimed by the negative came prior to the last twenty years. Furthermore all the industrial progress of those twenty years has not been due to trade unionism.

That Metcalf made his long run around his end is due to the failure of the secondary defense and to unpenalized holding by Yale, rather than to any fault of his. Parkinson's playing at centre was aggressive and effective, but was shadowed by his lamentably poor passing. LeMoyne at guard, although a Freshman, played a game which would have done credit to an older and more experienced...
