...were in the class have enrolled in the Reserve Officers Training Unit, and classes cannot be formed which will accommodate all the Freshmen and at the same time not interfere with the drilling.

They will back him because of the conviction-which is by no means confined to Princeton men-that Rush has shown high qualifications in the matter of teaching football; that in each of his two years of service at Nassau he has given the Orange and Black that which it has lacked since the modern game was devised in the winter of 1905-a rounded offence.
