...poetry, Mr. Nickerson's "Ballad" is pretty in thought and execution. Mr. Bell's "Sonnet" has lost its fifth line somewhere on the way to press--an important line giving the clue to the protagonists of the octave. But even without knowing exactly who or what they are which "amid the darkness shine," one is justified in saying that it is a good piece of verse displaying Mr. Bell's usual facility in handling the sonnet form.

Meanwhile Professor Royce invites all who disagree with him to use their opportunities, as spectators, as a means of making themselves more loyal and devoted men.

During the first half the play was very even, and although Harvard was outplaying its opponents in the second half, it was not until the last few minutes of the game that Harvard's touchdown was made. It came as the result of a series of rushes and forward passes from Harvard's own 24-yard line, the best exhibition of football Harvard has shown this year. Three beautiful forward passes and consistent gains by Leslie, Ver Wiebe and Smith...
