Talcott has been Yale's mainstay in the box during the games with Cornell, Dartmouth, and Princeton, and will undoubtedly start against the University tomorrow. He has been steady to the point of issuing only one base on balls in all three games, and has held his opponents to four runs...
...most evident conclusion to be drawn from the meet is that the Freshman entries were in general far better than the University runners, as may be judged by the results in points. Of the 50 points won by the University men, 25 or exactly half, went to C. G. Krogness, captain of the 1921 track squad, E. O. Gourdin '21 and G. G. Monks '21 combined.

They coolly point out that the great need of officers can most effectively be met by a combination of R. O. T. C. training and college education. We bow to them as to wise men who can forget the enthusiasm of the moment in a cold calculation of what tomorrow may bring as well as today. But we oppose to them the pressing need for men now. The college man makes an able officer...
