...opinion of Stubbs that correct officiating will speed up the game and add as much to college hockey as the new offside rule added to the professional game. Incidentally he also expressed the opinion that college hockey right now didn't want the new offside rule. This seems to substantiate popular opinion. The collegiate officials are trying to open up the game just as the pros are doing but from a different standpoint. The pro magnates are throwing away some of the fine points of hockey in permitting offside play and are catering to the crowds in their attempt...
...institution of such a plan of open tournaments will do much to settle the question of the supremacy of the courts also. While this is admittedly not a vital matter, still it will afford a great deal of satisfaction to tennis fans who have been arguing for a long time as to the relative merits of various professional and amateur players.

It is unfortunate that the present financial status of many of the poorer schools will not permit such expansion, but it is not improbable that should the success of the policy...
...have nothing in particular to offer, but I do wish to express the fact that the course aroused in myself at times something of the spirit in which I believe your editorial was written. It may not, as Professor Langer demonstrates, accord with the facts, but there was certainly much about the course to exasperate the student. The combination of assignments of considerable, though not for this university unique, length, with breath-taking and nerve-wracking examinations and a considerable strictness in correcting and grading appealed more to gambling instincts than to anything else. There was at times a pleasant...
