...faculty advice in regard to the form of writing stories and the make-up of the paper could be given in a purely advisory way, it would not cause the undesirable friction that authoritative supervision would cause. For some college publications such a plan might have many beneficial results. Perhaps it is true that the majority of papers have vacillating policies, but a condition of this kind is evidence of active thinking among college men and of the existence of groups holding diversified views.

Complete harmony and co-operation seem to be established between coach and captain for this season. Such was not the case last year, however, and it may not be in other years.

Friction in the mechanism of the attack used by the University substitutes deprived the team of the greater part of its efficiency, and a deplorable mediocrity in the drop-kicking department spoiled whatever chances the second string men had to score. Brown played a conservative and dogged game, holding the University to a 0 to 0 tie score, because of the perseverance of their defence and the brilliant playing of Gordon and Clark in the backfield...
