This whole haphazard business must stop now. A few more such occurrences will show us unworthy of the Government's patronage, for we do not want to have the R. O. T. C. merely a motley array of undergraduates in uniform. It is recognized as a military organization and that it must remain. Discipline among friends is a difficult proposition; there is a constant temptation to visit the top-sergeant tell him a sad story about how much work you had, and then remind him of what good friends you two have always been.

On two of these times the ball was well within the five-yard line, and once with one yard to gain on the fourth down the reserves attempted a forward pass, which failed, however, to score the winning points...
