...response, it is true, the Kaiser speaks in a different vein, but seven words of truth forced their way out among sentences of sham for public consumption. The Allies have tried to make things serious the decisive for over three years now, but Teutonic organization has made their game a slow one. This year, of all times, with the United States working in accord with these undaunted Allies, may their aims be realized.

The game will commence at 7.30 o'clock. Inasmuch as the sailor aggregation includes in its lineup several former collegiate and club stars through whose playing Camp Upton and Boston College have already been defeated, the University seven faces a difficult contest. The Newport Reserves have already acquired a reputation in athletics through the football eleven from their station that, under the leadership of Black, the former Yale captain, defeated...
...Lampoon squad of three editors, one candidate (hired), two blacksmiths and Max, have sworn off their customary festivities and are now in training at Bentram Hall, Radcliffe. Trainer Ibis, B.S. '64*, will have his men in condition by February 15, when the game will be played promptly at 2.30. Seats may be had at the Song Shop, Brooks House, or any Sewing Circle Lodge. Owing to the war, relatives and friends will please send no flowers...
