...realize how much confidence the University has placed in Coach Haughton's ability to develop its football teams. Nor has that confidence been misplaced. During the nine years of his career as head coach Haughton has developed his elevens with system and success always an apostle of sportsmanship and sane athletic method. We cherish the hope that circumstances may yet permit Haughton to occupy at least an advisory capacity in the training of the University's elevens.

Senator Lodge declared his position several days ago in these words. The prominence given them in the newspapers of every section and of every shade of political opinion is, as we believe, eloquent of the national sympathy evoked by such a sane and strongly American declaration.

...numbers out, they must provide some intercollegiate meetings with our natural rivals no matter how much the season may be modified from the pre-war standards. If they will promise, on their side, to give us competition with other colleges, the undergraduates will promise in turn to conduct a sane and economical season, without neglect of military work, but rather with an increased interest in it.
