...Freshman team had no scrimmage yesterday and will not today. As the men are now all in first class condition, Coach Cooper does not care to risk the chance of injury before the game with the Yale freshmen tomorrow. Signal practice yesterday was encouraging, the backs having developed a speed and accuracy that was entirely lacking earlier in the season. The line too was quick and followed the plays much better than usual...
...Executive Committee. This Committee, however, considers that a trial now is inadvisable, for even if the members of the Hall should approve of a trial, the time before the end of the year is probably too short to make the necessary changes in the bookkeeping. and not run some risk of failing to get the board-bills to the Bursar promptly.

Kernan's leg is practically well again but it has been thought best not to risk a strain until it has regained its strength.

...amenable to student public sentiment. Obviously, no body of men meets all these requirements better than the combined Faculties of the University--the older and tried portion of the teachers devoting their whole lives to the service of the students. Obviously, too, they must not be exposed to risk of personal loss as a result of their disinterested service to their colleagues and the student body, and hence they must be in the position of stockholders of a corporation and not mere managers of a partnership...
