There was a crisp wind blowing up Tokyo Bay and Vag watched the palm trees some Admiral's wife ordered planted bending crazily in the chilling breeze. Somehow, thought Vag, those should be elm trees. Funny thing how these cool autumn days in Japan brought back memories of Cambridge in the fall--how on cold November days Vag speculated whether or not he should shift from chinos to gray flannels. Vag remembered that, of course, he never did. Even those Japanese kids were beginning to resemble. Harvard Square urchins. But, decided Vag, the propositions they were screaming were even more...
...Vag wandered into the Officer's Club for a drink and bought the latest "Stars and Stripes." The headline on the sports page said, "Harvard Coach Eyes First Win Over Elis." My Gawd, thought Vag, they're playing in New Haven tomorrow. Oh, well, have to grow up some day and who'd want to be the only duffer at the 25th reunion who had never missed a Yale game? Anyway, didn't Jordan Olivar say last week that it was just another football game. The mere thought of Olivar set Vag to cursing him for that asinine Yaeger stunt...
...Vag was still mumbling about poor taste when his Yalie friend joint him at the bar. Vag noticed that he was still wearing his Brezelius tie but refrained from making any snide comments. The crew-cut Eli was offering seven points. Vag hadn't yet received his clippings from home on the Harvard-Brown game. Maybe Clasby wouldn't even play against Yale tomorrow.

...Yalie was gloating over some Corporal's sports column in "Starts and Stripes" about "Princeton Woes." Something in it about Princeton's "narrow escape with impotent Harvard." The Yalie thought that "impotent" business was pretty cute until Vag snarled "too bad you missed the Dartmouth game this year." The Eli suddenly started talking about Malloy's broken leg. The tension broke when Vag's Princeton Ensign strode up and bet the Eli that Harvard would win. Vag had always claimed you couldn't tell a Princeton from a Yalie, but any Charlie who put money on Harvard was Vag...
...Johnson, in full battle grime, assaulted him from a poster in front of the UT. He saw the notice: REVIEW DAY. . .TODAY ONLY Battleground and Corvette K69. Golly, thought Vag, and I've got tutorial tonight. He checked his watch and saw that he was already three minutes late. That would mean at least one demerit. Besides, he really should have gotten a haircut with an inspection slated for that day; long hair would earn another demerit. Of course he could pull his cap down to his cars, but that would be lacking in honor. No, the best thing would...
