...break were of her own choosing. A Harvard Lampoon editorial and murmurs of dirty football hardly entered into the situation except as the former furnished a convenient casus belli for the Princeton authorities. The breach was inevitable as long as Princeton insisted on being recognized as of equal importance with Yale, not can it be healed as long as this attitude prevails. However, the merits of the controversy are of small import compared with the value in forcing a new appraisal of the game of football judged from the point of view of the undergraduate, not the graduate who measures...
...they agreed at last upon a formula defining exactly, for the first time, the status of the Dominions: "The position and mutual relations of the group of self-governing communities composed of Great Britain and the Dominions may be readily defined. They are autonomous communities within the British Empire, equal in status and in no way subordinate one to the other in any aspect of their domestic or external affairs, though united by a common allegiance to the Crown and freely associated as members of the British Commonwealth of Nations...
...national loss resulting from the British Coal Strike (TIME, May 10 et seq.) was estimated last week to equal ?40 ($200) for every family in the British Isles. None the less the 750,000 miners who were still on strike last week, refused by a 100,000 majority to accept the settlement negotiated by their Executive Committee with Premier Baldwin (TiME, Nov. 15), after their delegates' congress had empowered the committee to make peace "on the best terms to be had."

It is true that Chicago has no Rosa Ponselle, no Maria Jeritza, no Gigli, no Martinelli, and that it dispensed with the high-priced Amelita Galli-Curci; but often the Chicago operas more than equal the Metropolitan in vitality and freshness. Mr. Insull, being both quiet and reticent, undoubtedly neglected to tell Her Majesty that he is the Tsar of Chicago opera, that he dashes off to Europe in search of these artists, that he recently collected the second five-year guarantee...
Harding is the only man lost through graduation from the two forward lines that were the crimson last year. It was largely due to the two sets of forwards practically equal in ability, that Coach Bigelow was able to pilot the Harvard team through to straight victories over both Princeton and Yale last year. Nathaniel Hamlea '27, J. P. Chase '28, and C. S. Gross '27 were the three men usually named to start hostilities, but they did not often spend more time on the ice than the second trio of Harding, R. S. Scott '27, and Isadere Zarakov...
