...been the most significant movement of the latter years of the war. An Allied gain of equal importance would have been heralded as a great victory. There is, therefore, no discounting the fact that the Allies have suffered a serious set-back. Upon the other side, however, the Allied line has remained intact, retreating only before superior numbers and inflicting tremendous losses upon the enemy. If this war, even after the Russian collapse, is a war of attrition, the Allies have gained rather than lost. The importance the spring drive of 1918 depends on the present state of German manpower...

This afternoon at 3.30 the Freshman baseball nine will line up against Wentworth Institute on Soldiers Field in what will be the third engagement of the season. Judging from the Freshmen's past record of two victories over Rindge Technical and Worcester Academy by the scores of 17 to 9 and 20 to 3, the first-year men should have no difficulty in coming out on top in today's game.
