First of all, the Blue Chief-of-Staff has been concerned with a remedy for the faulty blocking in his backfield which has sapped a good deal of the Bulldog's offensive strength throughout the season. And secondly he has had to face the task of building his embattled Elis up to a high emotional pitch which came so near to carrying them to victory over the Princeton powerhouse...
...Marionette Room-tempo is a little faster than some of the other hotel rooms, but still much fun. Dancing is okeh. . . Hotel Lenox-the Blue Train. I have fond memories of the Blue Train after an especially noisy evening. Soft lights and similar stuff made it very pleasant, with good music as an added factor. Recommended as an oasis...
...many lorgnettes, but still fun: The Cocoanut Grove specializes in liquor and a floor show. Dancing isn't too marvelous. . . . The Brown Derby-about the same as the foregoing-a little less expensive. . . The Casa Manana nice setting with good music and food make this a good bet. Probably will be crowded as it isn't murderous in its prices. . . . The Mayfair: about the same as the others, a little noisier, and more expensive. . . Crawford House-to be avoided if possible.

Raymor Ballroom while inhabitated by jitterbugs and the like, has some good jazz in Les Brown's band. . . Roseland State Ballroom much the same type as the Raymor...
There's nothing so hot about these guys. They're a dime a dozen on every Harvard squad in every sport, and they don't get either headline or athletic scholarships. They may be suckers, but they're in a swell sport to do one badly needed good turn. They can give a loud and lusty bird to John Tunis. Larry Kelly, and their fellow hatchet men of the "College athletics stink" tribe...
