...quarterback position. In case he is not able to lead the team, Gardner, who has been out of the game for nearly a month, will go in as field general. Although handicapped by this absence, Gardner has had a year's experience on the University team and should prove somewhat better than either Freedley or Callander, the only other quarterbacks of the squad. Felton will probably watch the game from the sidelines owing to a severe bruise sustained in the Brown game last Saturday. This position, however, can be well cared for by O'Brien...
...solution of the problem, if there was but food enough for one. At present two civilized nations think that war is the only solution, if there are sufficient foreign trade markets for but one. The present propaganda for international peace among nations can be likened to the first and somewhat hesitating arrangements between savages for the settlement of their disputes by a third person. The savage's problem appears indeed simple compared to ours...
...Training School, this afternoon at Springfield. The team last year lost to the Training School, and it is expected that this game, coming so early in the schedule, will be a hard one. The forwards, whose lack of team-work was noticeable in the game last Saturday, have improved somewhat, and the backs clear the ball much better.

Weston, who injured his knee in practice, will not be in the game today, Baldwin taking his place at right half-back and Francke moving to the centre...
...development of the University eight during the two weeks in which it has been on the water has been somewhat slower than usual. The work of the first few days, with six veterans in the boat, was very encouraging, after which there was a distinct falling off in form. The men were unable to catch together and lost the hard drive on the finish, which was hurried. This made them force the recovery and lose control of their bodies, and so fail to keep the boat on an even keel. The last few days, however, have seen steady improvement. With...
...reply of Mark Twain after reading his own obituary might well be repeated by Owen Wister. In truth both reports "were grossly exaggerated." Also the fact that the noted author is a former members of the CRIMSON board made the "story" of his death in Saturday's issue partake somewhat of the humorous. However, we leave it to our valued contemporary (with which Mr. Wister was, we are told, "affiliated") to smooth out the crumpled galley sheets and draw thereon a lively cartoon. We would suggest some appropriate scene from that best of Harvard College tales. "Philosophy 4." Nothing would...
