In short, they must understand our industrial system, and know wherein it is strong and wherein it is weak, wherein it may be improved and to what extent it must be reformed. This presents a large field of study for the student of economics...

Dennis, rangy end, should duplicate the fine showing they made against Boston College. Much interest centers on the question of punting, which has heretofore been notably weak. Hunneman has shown ability as a kicker, but he has several times been forced to kick short in previous games. He has proven himself a great line-plunger, however, and a strong man on the defense. A. J. Conlon, R. Hoffman '19, and P. Coburn '22 are a trio...
