...honestly I can't see why anyone should begrudge Negroes the very small amount of honorable mention they receive. If a Negro is entitled to have his name appear in TIME, he is at the same time entitled to be referred to as "Mr.," and why any fair-minded man should object is beyond...

...recent book of Henry Cabot Lodge is the fall edition of the Hymn of Hate. It is a futile effort at self-defense-an apology weakly put forth; a retreat without a single handsome feature. No one could expect, from a pen dipped in venom, a fair or impartial appraisement of Woodrow Wilson; especially from one who, where Woodrow Wilson's policies were concerned, was incapable of having a generous thought. It is regrettable, indeed, that at the end of his so distinguished a career a man should have put his great talents to so base...

Generally speaking, Princeton showed a strong defense but only a fair offense Saturday. The Orange and Black was the first eleven in two years to effectively stop Eddie Tryon, leading point scorer of the East. His longest gain from scrimmage was an end run of 13 yards, which resulted in the only touchdown, and on only one other occasion did he make as much as ten yards. In the covering of punts, great improvement was also displayed. Frequently the Tiger forwards broke through the line to throw the Maroon backs for losses, Colgate losing 48 yards in this manner, while...
