...Hearn, last season's Freshman quarterback, is also being awaited with great impatience by the Blue coaching staff. If O'Hearn lives up to expectations, he will be the man that Yale has been hoping for during the last ten years. With his three-threat attack of running, kicking, and passing he appears to have in him the makings of a quarterback who will be able to match Lourie of Princeton or any man Coach Fisher can produce for the University.

As taxation has always been the particularly sore point with the large, ignorant class of India, this idea holds a strong appeal. If this threat is carried out and is successful, the outcome will be certain and fatal. The British Government in India will not trifle with disobedience...
