McCurdy and Green are still fighting for the center berth, with either as a likely starter Saturday. Oothout and Meisenbach, who have been doing very well at the guard positions so far, have a slight lead over their closest rivals, Barbee and Fordyee, the latter a football star who is improving rapidly after a slow start...
According to Professor K. F. Mather of the Geology Department, the University seismograph showed that the shock occurred at 8.07 o'clock yesterday and lasted for 45 seconds. He believes that yesterday's quake was due to a shifting, either vertically or horizontally, of the great Fundian fault in the earth's crust which is submerged under the Bay of Fundy.

Bullfighting is a sport to be appreciated only by a hot-blooded people, folk in whom an artistic bloodlust...
