Since its last game the University team has improved considerably, not only in team-play but in individual handling of the puck and stick-work. Phillips' return will strengthen the line and Wylde's broken nose will not prevent him from playing, so that the University will meet the Canadians with practically a regular line-up, as far as that has been determined to date. The forward line is both fast and accurate and with occasional exceptions, plays well together. The defence is unusually strong and the team in general is in very good condition for the game...

...thought of an auto-ambulance, than that we were to rest satisfied with Red Cross contributions alone. If a plague were to sweep across this country, it would be necessary to care for the sick; but how much more necessary to remove the causes of that plague and prevent its recurrence. It cannot be proven, but we believe it to be a fact, that if the energy and money which are now being devoted to lessening the destruction of the present war had been previously devoted to promoting better understanding between the nations of the world and making their armaments...

...pernicious custom of carrying umbrellas." While gloriously and completely missing the fundamental premise of the anti-militarist doctrine, Mr. Schenck has in one simile clearly exposed the basic fallacy of militarism. To the militarist war is an evitable as rain; it being futile to try to prevent rain, we can only resign ourselves to protection against it. To the anti-militarist exactly the opposite is the true situation. War between nations is no more an inevitable phenomenon of nature than physical conflicts between individuals, and no less subject to control by law and reason...

...other undergraduates do theirs. Today's parade gives an opportunity for the display of the sort of enthusiasm Coach Haughton has asked for--the sort that puts heart into a team. Every man who can should be in the parade. A class is the only engagement that should prevent a man from marching. The team must leave for New Haven knowing that it is not making its fight alone, but that an enthusiastically loyal student body is behind...

...moral sense, few seemed to hesitate to hand their money to friends near the box-office who apparently stood a better chance of getting tickets. So far as the effect on those behind goes, the result is the same in either case. It is obviously unfair, and to prevent the recurrence of such a practice I suuggest that the sales of "rush" seats at the coming concerts be managed in Cambridge as they are in Boston, and that no person be allowed to buy more than one of the twenty-five cent tickets. If some such rule is not adopted...
