Once a league is formed; once the world may be assured of our intentions in arming,--then America must do her share. If it is required of us, let us have an army of a million men and universal training. Then no danger of suspicion attaches to so radical a change in policy; but until then it is a stumbling-block in the road of the world's progress. HALLOWELL DAVIS...

...University hockey team and the B. A. A. fought out a lively 30-minute scrimmage at the Arena yesterday afternoon, in which the Crimson players came off with a 4 to 2 advantage.

This 75 or 80 per cent. has already been congratulated in advance in your editorial of yesterday; they will be congratulated again...
...practice since the defeat by Princeton, the University hockey team was given no letup, but was worked steadily for an hour in the Arena yesterday afternoon. The men seemed fairly tired after their New York trip and did not put up a very spirited exhibition of hockey. Coach Winsor let E. O. Baker '17, T. H. Rice '17, and G. Townsend '17 off with about 40 minutes of work, but kept the rest of the squad for the full hour...
