...Harvard lost Mahan, but of course, will endeavor to find a successor--perhaps Flower, perhaps Casey--and then to effect an interlocking system in which each man will do his part to make the play a success. Yale will unquestionably use Le Gore in this way, and if the proper supporting combination can be arranged, he will be a dangerous offensive factor, since versatility is, so to speak, his middle name. Princeton will undoubtedly work over the idea; in fact, every team with a progressive coach will do something with the play if only because it is so difficult...
...great factor of interference with the plan of the coaches is military exigence. A good many guards and tackles and "backs" are in camp or on the border with the militia. Should not a proper sense of values move even a stern and warlike Government to release them to the greater service? Because a college president becomes President of the United States, must he revise the order of the grades in the academic climax: For God-for country-and for the dear old college? Let the boys come home, to learn the greater strategy of line bucking, end running...

It is impossible for officials to notice all violations of rules, and proper play must be the result of the determination of coaches and players to eliminate all unfairness. There has been "a rapid improvement of the standards of play in the last ten years," but there is still something to be done...
...students are allowed a free choice, subject to the condition, however, that their course be approved by the Director. The Director of the School is presumed to have a personal acquaintance with each of the students, and to be able in person or through delegation to give to each proper advice. Students who desire to have a general business course will find such a curriculum mapped out for them. Others who may prefer to specialize will find a sequence of courses in a variety of subjects; accounting, banking, finance, transportation, commerce and trade, business organization and management, manufactures, advertising...
