...Graydon and Kernan. A. Marshall, who played right guard in last Saturday's game with Bates, has a lame back and will be given a rest for a few days. Hovey will take his place. Graydon's injury is in his shoulder and though the trouble is not serious, he will not be used unless necessity demands it. Kernan's leg is practically well again but it has been thought best not to risk a strain until it has regained its strength. Bowditch is not in very good condition and will be played probably only during part of the game...
...allowed to run short. No difficulty has been met with in burning bituminous coal in the grates which heretofore have been used entirely for anthracite. With care the present supply will last until about the first of December. Financially, the situation, from the University standpoint, is not very serious as the price of bituminous coal is very little higher than that which has been paid for hard coal. As the supply of Franklin coal is practically exhausted Cannel will have to be used in students' rooms in the College dormitories and considerable inconvenience may result from the dust occasioned...
Several prominent players were absent from the practice yesterday. Kernan was hurt last Monday and though the injury, which is in his knee, is not at all serious, he will be kept out of the practice until he is quite recovered. Barnard is not yet playing again, and Leatherbee stayed away yesterday on account of a lame back. Hurley is sick, but is expected out in a day or two and will then be tried at quarterback; for besides Marshall there is no suitable man for that position in case Daly is again injured. Clark was out for the first...
...fiction of the current number of the Monthly is distinctly less interesting and less original than the three or four contributions of a more serious nature. Of the latter, an analysis, by Ernest Bernbaum, of the novels of George Gissing, a witer on middle-class London life, strikes one as peculiarly well handled; for it succeeds from the first in stimulating one's curiosity in regard to a contemporary author not widely known...
...rest of the number is largely given up to stories, two of a light, not to say fantastic character, two of a more serious sort. Both the former are very good of their kind. "Pomath," by E. R. Little '04, is a whimsical combination of humor and wild invention. "The Mermaid and the Schooner Scud" is quite as funny, quite as well told, and if possible even more improbable. "At the End of Four Years," signed "Ezra Kidd," gives a new version of a rather common plot, with a technique and setting decidedly better than the common. A mistaken impression...
