...view of the "era of good feeling" which has happily been inaugurated in athletics between Harvard and Yale, may it not be in order to suggest to our "friend, the enemy" that it is time to give up the concerted efforts to "rattle" our players? Whenever Harvard had the ball on the Yale side of the field during the recent game in the Stadium, the Yale crowd set up a great noise, in order to drown, if possible, the signals given to the Harvard team. So also, whenever Brickley prepared to make a drop or place kick, the Yale "rooters...
...course this is not sport; its proper designation would be unpleasant for a Harvard man to write. If the practice, though wholly unjustifiable, helped Yale teams to win, it would seem like "squealing" for a Harvard man to suggest that it be discontinued.

...this Executive Order throughout the last two presidential administrations, and it has been intimated by the present administration and already indicated by such transfers and promotions as have occurred since March 4, 1913, that civil service principles with regard to the consular service will scrupulously be observed. In view of this attitude of both Republican and Democratic administration, it is hardly conceivable that, even in the absence of legislation by Congress, any future administration will presume to oppose the unequivocal sentiment of the business men of the country by giving the service over once more to the spoils system ousting...
