Members of the University placed well in two of the four events in the first day of the Pennsylvania relay carnival yesterday, W. S. Blanchard '17 making an especially good showing by tieing White of Syracuse in the 56-pound weight throw with a mark of 31 feet five inches, equalling last year's record which was also made by White. In the throw off White was given first place with a mark of 30 feet one and one-half inches, Blanchard only making 28 feet...

Then if, as seems probable; war is declared the University as a whole will be able to throw itself unreservedly into the service of the Government. Confidence and determination will take the place of doubt and irresolution. If we must have a period of uncertainty let it be now rather than after war has actually been declared to exist...
