Remaining behind to carry on are six good forwards and two good defense men. The Sophomore line of George Roberts, Johnny Mechem, and Ned Cutter, shows the possibility of a great career. With plenty of speed and teamwork they furnished the spark of the Harvard attack this year. The three Juniors who played this year will supplement the Sophomore line with offensive power.

The prostrate Chinese as they scanned the news from Tokyo this week remained particularly prostrate, a comfortable posture in which they await Japanese bankruptcy, Japanese proletarian revolution, Japanese defeat by Russia or the decay of Japanese from temperamental instability in a few hundred or thousand years...
