...Freshman Class' failure to respond to the call for candidates seems more unusual when it is considered that soccer is a sport which offers very great opportunity for men who lack weight enough for football and experience enough for baseball. Those who were dropped from Freshman football when the last cut was made might find more opportunity in the soccer squad. This year's schedule includes games with many of the neighboring preparatory schools, beginning October 25 at Andover. G. J. Tilton '20, the former Andover player, has been appointed captain...

Elsie Rizer as the Colonel's wife, also has ability, but there is a lack of poise in her acting which is noticeable at tense moments. It is a surprise to see Frank Campeau in the small role of Bill, Hecht, when one remembers the remarkable Trampas he played in "The Virginians." Amelia Gardner as Mrs. Lane and Robert Frazer as Lieut. Ellsworth were capable supporters...
