...game, exciting and rough, the Squantum Naval Air School, football team defeated the Ground School for Aviators at Technology 7 to 0 on Soldiers' Field yesterday. The University was represented by three men on the Squantum eleven; H. C. Flower '19, a member of last year's University team, captained and played full back; W.

At Westfield and other camps in the middle and western part of the state preparation for the season is already well under way. From Westfield, the 1st Maine Heavy Artillery is to send a team against the informal University in Cambridge. In this regiment...
...glad I am here, as I consider it a very great privilege to be able to take an active part, even if it is a small part, in the fight for the greatest cause the world has known, next to that of Christianity. This war is like a football game on a huge scale. It takes the very best men to play it and success depends on wonderful team-work and tremendous sacrifices. And there is a tremendous amount at stake...
