...hockey team gave Princeton a considerable surprise in New York, Saturday evening, by holding them to a 7 to 5 score in an extra period contest. The game was one of the fastest and most interesting of the year.

...these words will deem Professor Eucken an old fogy, and German universities far behind the times. Surely American educators have seen a new light.

This weakness has been largely eliminated...
That 75 years of experience have demonstrated public ownership superior, was the argument of F. F. Greenman '14. Though rates under this regime are higher, yet the earnings more than proportionately excell those of the other regime...
