Admitting that in such a hurried trip he must necessarily lose much of the picturesqueness and beauty of the scenery, Mr. Mears emphasized that this, however, was impossible in Japan, and threw photographs on the screen which were excellent witnesses to what he said. At Yokohama he took the "Empress of Russia" for America. A hydroplane took him ashore from the steamer to Seattle, and here he took the North Coast Limited for St. Paul.

We cannot get around the fact that Yale would tie or lose a dozen other games to win from Harvard; nor can we say that Harvard would not do the same to win from Yale. Our football hopes are centered on that contest, there is no denying it. The CRIMSON is behind the team as it never was before and believes that the same...
