...journalist's modern problem, it would seem, is over-production. When one looks at the over-laden newsstands and magazine racks, and notes the same authors in periodical after periodical, it is scarcely to be wondered that most of the writing is make-shift and haphazard. Criticism, especially, is filling more and more space; in fact it is the proving-ground of many a young writer, and the incidental odd-jobbery of older hands at the literary game. But it is not highly paid, and since much of it is under commercial influences, it is perfunctory at best, and usually...

...Hill in the forward line. Considerable interest was aroused during that contest by the use of Captain. Owen at center, Hammond taking his place on the defense. This worked out exceptionally well at that time and was again used to advantage yesterday afternoon. It seems likely that the same shift will be utilized tomorrow against the Unicorns...

...team at 8 o'clock tonight in the Freshman Athletic Building. The practice since the defeat by Tilton has been devoted mainly to the rudiments of passing, in an effort to eliminate the weakness in this part of the attack as evidenced in the recent game. A radical shift in the opening line-up has been made in an effort to perfect a fast "four-man attack". The steady work of J. A. Reed at center is expected to give balance to the team. University Coach Wachter assisted Coach Chase at Tuesday's practice, and gave special attention to this...

...liveliness of the whole cast that makes the play so appealing. If the humor seemed to drag in spots, it was only because it needed a responsive audience to echo it and buoy it up. There was plenty of it, spontaneous and without archaism. For settings, which required frequent shift, curtains and flats were used with artistic and appropriate effect, and proved readily adaptable to the varied action...
