...backfield situation, although not as unsettled as earlier in the week, was still undecided. Wood and Mays were both absent because of an afternoon examination and Gilligan filled in at left half again with Putnam, Devens and Harper completing the quartet. If Wood and Mays had been there it would be interesting to note what the result would have been. It is highly improbable, however, that Gilligan will start against the Alligators. Either Putnam or Mays will replace him. Wood will call signals if the former is chose, but Putnam, will direct the team in the event...
This latter change seems much more likely to be of permanent significance. With Devens and Harper filling in at the other two positions the Crimson would have practically the best running backfield it could assemble. Putnam, Devens and Mays all are experts on the lateral pass and end runs while Devens and Harper could be called upon for thrusts at the line and off-tackle. The Wood-Putnam-Devens-Harper combination, however, should not be neglected. In all probability this quartet will get a thorough test against the Alligators with the remote idea of starting against Michigan the following week...

THE LIFE OF NAPOLEON-Dmitri Merezhkovsky-Dutton ($3). THE PHANTOM EMPEROR: THE ROMANCE AND TRAGEDY OF NAPOLEON III- Octave Aubry-Harper ($2.50). Many U. S. citizens go to Europe. Few know any history except the Anglo-American combination. But U. S. play-goers who have seen Walter Hampden act the Parisian smash of 1897, Edmond Rostand's lyrical Cyrano de Bergerac, have gained an inkling of what 17th Century France...
Harvard has a back of her own who comes in for more than his share of christening. T. W. Gilligan '31, as he is known in the chaste columns of the CRIMSON, has been called "Gone Again", "Off-Again-On-Again", and "Giddy-Ap" Gilligan. Wallace Harper, who will be missed from the Harvard lineup today, has been dubbed the "Ioway Dutchman", for reasons unknown. In general the nicknames are amazingly apt. "Gentleman Gene" and "Tiger Jack" just about describe those two ex-heavyweight champs. The local pugilistic comedian, one Mr. Stone, has been happily termed "Rocky" (Crushed) Stone...
