Nourse will probably fill the centre position. He was Grant's substitute throughout the past season, and, like Grant, plays a very snappy game. The other centres are Smith, of the Freshman team, a light but quick player, and Dore of the second team...

...verse of the number aside from "The Jester" certainly belies the title of the latter. It is all very serious, not to say solemn. In "The Modern World," Mr. Wheelock dreams of a day "when Socialism, like another Christ, shall shatter the old world," and in an "Epilogue" his spirit reels, "Drunk with a defiance stronger than the tyranny of death!" In Mr. Miller's "The Aged Poet's Soliloquy" a bard of seventy-five long years grieves that men shall never know the richer veins of gold that lay below the inmost marvel of his poet's heart...

...crew could have rowed several seconds faster had there been occasion. Equally encouraging reports have been coming from the Yale quarters at Gales Ferry, and the Yale crew appears to be fully as fast as last year's eight with the added advantage of a little more weight.

His remarks on the grotesque, on pettiness, on the modern passion for activity, and on the dangers of the antique--to mention only a few of the topics he touches upon by the way--are penetrating and suggestive, the product of a mind that forms its own opinions...

...next inning Simons singled with no out, and was sacrificed by Hall. Kem. ble drove a liner between short and third that looked like a sure hit, but Regnier made a wonderful catch and doubled up Simons at second. Until the ninth not another man reached first base. Then Hicks made his three-base hit with no one out, but Leonard flied to third, Harvey fouled out, and Lanigan struch out, thus ending the game. The umpire called the third strike on a ball that appeared altogether too high, which was most unfortunate ror Harvard, as it took away...
