Reilly, Spalding and Philbin will remain the first set of backs till after the West Point game. Reilly's fault is slowness, but he is powerful and in the plunging role has made good.

Philbin is approaching form and, as a dodging and a plunging back, gives promise of proving one of the most valuable members of the team. Anderson, the former Wisconsin back, is the hardest line forcer of the team, but fails to get his signals straight and to follow...

Athletics are, in their very nature an influence for democracy in the University, and for that very reason the cropping up of the suggestion of a clique there was unexpected. Harvard College...
...take in return what the boys can teach them. To give everything and take nothing is impossible and would be unprofitable to all concerned; to give nothing and try to take everything is equally impossible and would be unjust. Social service is something more than to take a set program and follow it through day in and day out in one's work; it is to take charge of a boys club, or something similar, and put into its training all the originality of the mind, all the original ideas which may occur.
