Anybody who has been to the Trophy Room of the Harvard Union recently must have noticed with much regret the wretched state of dilapidation which surrounds it. In the first place, the room where our athletic treasures are stored is out of the way on the second floor of the not too frequented building. At other colleges the emblems of victory are preserved in a prominent place. But what we notice most particularly is the condition of the banners and flags which decorate the walls. They resemble ancient battle devices. They are torn and tattered and falling absolutely to pieces...
...victory for the Freshmen are very slight, for Andover has a well-balanced team, while 1921 must rely almost entirely on two men, L. H. Rand and E. C. Mott-Smith.

As is to be expected, comfort will not be found in anything built at the Ford plant. Much less will Wilhelm II rejoice at the thought of these pests among his imperial submersibles, for he can no longer rest assured of his weekly and ever-weakening toll of Allied vessels. Per chance Kultur will make him scoff when he hears a flivver manufacturer is going to check his naval warfare, but more...
