...PRINCETON: The Tigers have improved considerably in the two years that Frank Navarro has been at the helm. Most prominent is their running game, which will probably be the best in the Ivies. All-Ivy first team fullback Larry Van Pelt, a 5-ft. 7-in. bundle of energy, plugged for 550 yards last year and opened innumerable holes for second team All-Ivy halfback Cris Crissy, who piled up 604 yards. In sum, the duo produced nearly 2100 all-purpose yards...
...case of Cornell, which Princeton should battle for fourth, the Tigers' secondary was ravaged by graduation. The linebackers also run somewhat shallow, but the defensive line--anchored by consistent end Paul Van Pelt and tackle Steve Hart--should be aggressive. But all told, Princeton's defense prevents them from entering the upper echelons of the Ivies--though they might pull off an upset or two. No, Navarro is not switching from spikes to topsiders...

...there, written across the canvas with enormous chromatic zest, in William Glackens' Breezy Day, Tugboats, New York Harbor, circa 1910. But in Glackens' cheerfully slathered impasto, the sky streaked with cat's paws of pink and the puffs of whistle steam stitched across the fat, oily pelt of the sea, an other kind of sensibility is present. It is very like the world of the French Fauve painters Derain and Vlaminck. The gap between Paris and New York has narrowed to less than a decade, and American modernism is about to begin in earnest. -By Robert Hughes
