...backfield is largely an unknown quantity, lacking both experience and the climax runner who is a prime essential to Greasy Neale's plan of attack. Running and passing will be divided between Hovey Seymour and Fred Burr. Seymour was the captain and standout player of last year's unusually inferior Freshman team. He has both power and speed, but whether he has the deceptive change of pace of a first class ball-carrier remains to be seen, Burr is a letterman, passes and runs well, but never really got under way last fall...

...News also is a vigilant critic of the Government's protection policies (the latest issue complains that Government-supplied sandbags are of inferior quality and quickly disintegrate) and a mine of cheerless advertising.
