...that we know our fate we have to admit that a Monday holiday would not have been as ideal as at first it seemed. The work normally done then would merely have been shunted onto the other five days and we should have gained nothing. As far as saving fuel is concerned the Monday-vacation scheme would have been of no avail. The Yard, as we understand, is heated by excess steam from the Cambridge Power Plant, which would have to keep open anyway. We would have saved nothing there. Dormitories would necessarily be open and light and heat would...

...where it is possible, let him make the effort to do what he can; however little, and thus show that he is alive to the situation.

Mr. Herbert Druce, who played the elder Undershaft, is by no means mediocre, but there is a tinge of great power in the munitions-maker which at times he missed. Mr. Lewis Edgar was a good Bill Walker. A certain nervousness and rushing, however, clouded his part...

...Casey, of Harvard, is one of the best backs in the East, even though he does not hold onto the ball very well. Harvard's line play, from tackle to tackle, was superb. The two ends, Coolidge and Harte, did fine work on attack and defence. They were good, if not brilliant, on downfield work, and did acceptably, if not brilliantly, in protecting their wings. All things considered, the rival lines had pretty much of an even break of it. The Harvard backfield, aside from kicking, was superior to the Princeton backfield. Harvard did her share of ballchanging and thimble...
