...surgeon. For the last twelve years he has been engaged in medical work among the natives and fishermen of Labrador, cruising in summer the length of the coast in his steel hospital ship, the "Strathcona"; and in winter travelling through the country by dog team. He has founded three small hospitals, an industrial school, a mill and several co-operative stores; and plans to build a home for derelict children. His pictures give a very clear idea of the features of the barron coast of Labrador, the icebergs and fiords, which Dr. Grenfell compares favorably with those of Norway...

Although the Yale team has had considerably more experience, there is every reason to expect a relatively good showing by the University team. Since the revival of the sport last year a small number of men have been practising regularly under the direction of Mr. Dohs and Captain G. F. Evans '05, and with the material added this year and the experience already gained, the team should show considerable improvement over last year's exhibition with Columbia...
