This fall A. L. Boston Jr. '24, newly appointed assistant University coach, will, in addition to his work with Coach Brown, take charge of the three Freshman eights in which the experienced men are rowing. Last fall Hobson coached the Freshman Red, White, and Blue crews, while Coach Baines took the novices, first on the machines and in the Leviathan, and finally in shells. Coach Haines plans to continue this policy which has proved so successful in the past and instruct the inexperienced men himself. Bobson took his boats out for the first time yesterday afternoon and gave...
Twelve sons of Islam carried the 600-pound red, leaden coffin containing his body for a mile and a half from a Westbury funeral parlor to the Sikorsky hangar. Upon the coffin was the now obsolete flag of the Imperial Russian Navy under the Tsar. Upon this were the crossed sword and scabbard once belonging to Lieutenant Islamoff. Glistening from a verdant cloth at one end was the golden star and crescent of Islam.

He is a redheaded Irishman with a chest like an oak, rumpled red hair, cracked knuckles, a throat for pints of whiskey, ears for the rumble of life. His eyes are humorous, quick, lonely. He was born in a slum, educated by existence. Perhaps he is a prison graduate, bitterly "bumped." With slight intelligence but unlimited understanding he has made...
...compact squad of Geneva athletes led by two or three outstanding men such as Hubbard, the behemoth of the Covenanters line, Flenihen, a smashing, never-saydie halfback who could pass with some degree of accuracy as well as run, and Schancheon, a heady all around quarterback. What the red jersied players did show on their first appearance, was clean handling of the ball in the backfield, plenty of willingness and snap in the execution of plays and a knowledge of the rudimentary facts of football. Flashes of genius and inspiration were conspicuous by their absence and will, unless the situation...
