Captain Carberry has at his disposal 27, machines and 21 more have been ordered and are expected to arrive in a short time. There are vacancies at Mineola now for 50 new men and all those who pass the examination on Thursday will be sent in training there at once...
...Princeton men--all college men, in fact--should be trained to be officers; some of them, manifestly, will fall short of attaining the degree of preparation necessary, but for the most part upon educated men should fall the task of leading in war. Obviously, officers should be trained better than the men they will command. I think the drill undergraduates will receive in the course we are now planning to institute will be of valuable assistance in providing that knowledge of formations, etc., so needed for proper preparation...
...three teams eight on the track and two field events. The list includes a 40-yard dash, 45-yard high hurdles, 300-yard run, 600-yard run, 1,00-yard run, one mile run, two mile run, 390-yard relay, shot put and high jump.

This time was bettered by 1 1-5 seconds by the University four running against Cornell. Pennsylvania has had little indoor...
...third man yet to be chose. At the 1,000 yards distance J. T. Higgins, N. Y. A. C., D. S. Caldwell, B. A. A., and Earl Eby, Pennsylvania 1920, will compete. The latter holds the Central A. A.

Arrangements are also being made for a special three-mile event...
After the end of the University practice the Freshmen went in against the B. A. A., and although they came out on the short end of a 4 to 0 score, they made a very creditable showing. E. Cabot '20 particularly played a hard game, doing more work than any other member of the team, especially in following back and breaking up plays. J. Stubbs '20 was aggressive on the defence and W. J. Louderback '20 did his part in keeping the score down. The Freshmen have the same trouble as the University players in that they get started...
