...team, composed of F. A. Clark '29, G. O. Clark '31, and E. T. Gerry '31, has had a consistently brilliant record in the winter season, defeating every opponent by large scores. It is this fact combined with their extremely high rating which ranks them as strong contenders for the title...
...stairs in Harvard Hall and Fogg cannot but have a vague impression that the class-room facilities of the college are being put to intensive use.

It is especially striking in view of the fact that he has expended so much effort in bringing Italy under the absolute control of the civil government. He takes no consideration of the fact that in a few years the Italian nation will consist of those persons whose education he is now entrusting to an institution that by its very nature can not be anything but reactionary...
