This afternoon at 3.30 o'clock the CRIMSON hockey squad will skate its way in to fame when it starts the onslaught on the Mt. Auburn street wags in a friendly, but nevertheless one sided game of hockey. About an hour and a quarter afterwards, the sky-rockets will begin to shoot and the cellar of the Union will witness hilarity such as it has not experienced since the days of Lief Erickson when the Norsemen defeated the Indians in a game of leap-frog on this very spot...
College seems to be no place for the gospel that the world is too much with us. It is a quarter of a century since a voice came out of the wilderness of books declaring that book learning is not an end in itself, that history is to be studied in the light of the present and great ideas in the light of immediate service.

However, this nucleus from last year's varsity squad should be much strengthened by the addition of Van Winkle, last year's freshman crack, in the sprints; Millard, a good hurdler; Potter...
...addition Cornell will have Dave Caldwell, the Massachusetts "Aggie" Olympic half-miler this spring. He is expected to take Jones's place in the half mile, and may run the quarter. Morrison, the Leland Stanford University jumper, who becomes eligible this year; will also be a factor, and if Howard Fritz gets off probation and is able to go out for the pole-vault Moakley will be much pleased. Fritz has perhaps the best from of all pole-vaulters, and two years ago placed in the intercollegiates at 12 feet. He was ineligible last year...
