...University wrestling team will meet Yale in the Yale Gymnasium at New Haven this evening at 8.30 o'clock. This will be the fourth match the team has had this year, and it promises to be an exceedingly interesting one. Both teams are trained down to weight and seem evenly matched. Last year the University team was badly defeated. With the help of Coach Anderson, wrestling as a sport has gained much popularity this year, nearly twice as many men reporting regularly for practice as at the same time last...
...proved too much for a Harvard team with several disabled players. Yale and Harvard played once more a tie game with no scoring. In baseball Harvard succumbed to both Princeton and Yale. When the size of Harvard University is considered and her enormous outlay on athletic sports, it would seem that she should win more of the great games; but since her University teams contain neither Freshmen nor members of any graduate or professional school, the number of men available for these teams is smaller than the public supposes.

This newly-proposed scheme to infuse greater activity into our army and navy may seem, at first blush, inconsistent with our declared policy of seeking a peaceful solution of international differences. If we were to examine the two pellicles in a vacuum, it must be admitted that they would appear diametrically opposed. But, if we take them out of this purely artificial atmosphere, and examine...
