...treason in the insurance companies as in the legislature. Labor is equally unfitted for reform; the San Francisco labor government is as corrupt as any business enterprise. The old game of politics, the kind that Mr. Roosevelt plays, is one of compromise. The politician bought his position and kept it. Now the political aspirant should promise to follow out a definite program and make others promise and keep their word.

...football practice yesterday, the second team which was strengthened by the presence of H. E. Kersburg '07 at left guard, was lined up against the University eleven for a fifteen-minute scrimmage in which the ball was kept near the middle of the field most of the time. The University team used the forward pass frequently but to little advantage and lost their one chance to score when the pass went over the second's goal line. Crowley and R. Brown both caught the forward passes well, the work of the latter being especially good. Cutler did not use very...
