...knew no bourne, A soul that yet its glance in wonder raised, Like children at a miracle amazed, And plucked white flowers out of weed and thorn. We mourn, yet know that in a rarer clime He dwells with sages and with seraphim Free from the fetters and the weight of clay And from the passions of a gloomy time-- And we shall never let the flame grow dim That he has lit, a beacon on our way.

...Freshman Class' failure to respond to the call for candidates seems more unusual when it is considered that soccer is a sport which offers very great opportunity for men who lack weight enough for football and experience enough for baseball. Those who were dropped from Freshman football when the last cut was made might find more opportunity in the soccer squad.

...rush line averages less than 185 pounds and the backfield only 165 pounds, a remarkable shift from the heavyweight combination which began the season as Yale's first-string eleven. The second-string backfield has been transferred in a body and will probably begin the game. Its lack of weight is believed to be fully balanced by its speed and dodging qualities. Travis Smith, the new quarterback, has on two occasions this fall broken loose in an open field for runs of more than 70 yards and as a field general he has the call over the nine candidates...
