Just how the differences and inconsistencies in the arguments of various Republicans can be made an issue (without deliberate levity) by any one who supports President Wilson is hard to see. Mr. Hughes may indeed have widely different supporters, but "straight Americanism" will be enough for them all, although it may bore the Democrats as a "platitude". By insisting on the respecting of our rights by Germany, through a genuine threat of force, Mr. Hughes will satisfy the Roosevelt sentiment; in gaining a fair treatment from England of our mails and cargoes he will satisfy his German American supporters...
...German-American problem does not present so well-defined an issue. There are those who believe that President Wilson has been too lenient towards Great Britain and too severe in his treatment of Germany.

Mr. Murray Sheehan's two sonnets on "Fate," however, bear more clearly the stamp of vitalizing human experience. One feels that Mr. Murray is saying something...
...want scrub teams. We want to make athletics the real centre of undergraduate enthusiasm. There is a feeling outside of Yale that athletics have been over-emphasized at New Haven. They may have been in some major sports, but I think, as a whole, they have not been emphasized enough...
