Considering the fact that one University team in an attempt to uphold the liquor traffic in the recent intercollegiate debate was battered until it had, so to speak, not a keg to stand on, while its more soberly-inclined colleague went down utterly before the forces of booze, news of the generous distribution of gold and silver medals among the two unhappy teams is astonishing to say the least, besides giving color to the rumors that Harvard is fast becoming Prussianized.

Today at half after three o'clock the CRIMSON Hockey Team, armed with sticks, pucks and a keg of beer, will sally forth to Soldiers Field to meet an aggregation of seven or more representatives of the Lampoon on the ice.

We the "Sauerkraut eaters" are glad to accept your challenge and will provide a keg of goodly Muenchener if our friends of the "Twirleries" will provide some good Mumm, for that being dry will surely increase our craving for the malted mixture. Hoping that the Twirlers' captain will speak with the captain of the Frank-furters at the "Hofbrauhaus", Grays 20, DEUTSCHER VEREIN...
