...meet in the triangular series, now ending for the University Freshmen, was offered. In the first half at Exeter, 1921 played a fast game, scoring a touchdown and apparently having the game won. The Freshmen went to pieces, however, toward the close of the game, were unable to stop the Exeter attack, and had difficulty in holding the final score of the game...
...first type taken up at this school. After a few short flights to demonstrate his ability and to learn the machine, he was sent up for practice in spiraling. For this you ascend to 1,000 metres and from that altitude you spiral down to 600 metres where you stop the spiral and descend to the ground in normal and wide turns. He commenced his spirals normally, but, when at 600 metres, he did not stop. At about this altitude the machine "slipped off on a wing" (side-slipped) and then went into a nose drive. It struck the ground...
Scored on twice by the first Navy Yard team, the informal eleven was barely able to even the touchdowns after an hour's scrimmage by scoring twice against the Navy substitutes yesterday afternoon.

But I did use substantially the words cited above with regard to some leaders of the most radical wing of the Russian Socialists, the Bolsheviki. This statement was based on the copious documentary evidence published...
...total paralysis of the government; the widespread demoralization of the army; and the economic chaos. Between the future fates of Russia lie only the Russian socialistic parties, led by men who for the most part, are not honest fighters for an ideal but German agents who wish to stop the war and encourage a social revolution. Such men have also played a large part in the demoralization of the army, preaching insideous doctrines of giving up all offensive and defensive warfare as being against the highest republican principles. However, the strong hand of Kerensky, his great energy, enthusiasm, eloquence...
