Since 1922, when the University broke a four year Elli winning streak by a seven point margin, some of the closest meets on record have gone to the Blue. Two years ago Captain W. L.

...would seem as if the Engineers were undertaking more than they can finish in such a course. To begin with, no man, if he has not the native common sense necessary to let him work with his associates, will learn how to do so in the lecture room.
