Sparking the backfield, McNicol and Loring should share the spotlight Saturday. Both have proved themselves competent runners with McNicol looking very good on fakes and as a pass-flinger. It looks as if either Glass or Camp might develop into an adequate blocking back, but for the present, Goldthwaite is quite secure in the berth he has held since the opening game...
This is only part of the treaty which could end the present battle, for there is a vital procedural question involved. It is the matter of democracy in the conduct of Harvard's affairs, and it can be appreciated only by surveying fully a background which includes the formal democracy of President Eliot and the benevolent dictatorship of President Lowell.

Manning is the leader of an upperclass church, the Episcopalians being the cream of the wealthy fashionables of New York, and so he inevitably bespeaks their strong Anglophile sentiments. They will see in the college presidents the tools of their gold-plated corporations, serving to present the demands of unbridled-capitalism in the best light. Maybe this view cannot be dismissed in every case. Still it is certain that some of these propagandists are speaking independently and sincerely, uninfluenced by any but their own judgments. Still they are not justified in using the lever of their...
