...June 1 reached New York too late to be included in the list of institutions entered, but the late entries will be allowed. Fifteen names were on the list but it is still undecided how many, if any, will take, part in the meet. Since the material on the whole is so poor, the team is entered not to uphold the University's track standards, but rather as a group of individuals and as a reward for the season's training.

The resumption of Varsity football in the fall particularly interests us.

Despite, however, its occasional lapses into the immature and inept, the story as a whole is vividly and consistently imagined, vigorously told, and shows in several instances an acute understanding of human motive. Mr. Henderson's study, on the other hand, though simpler in theme, is much more perfectly and richly done. It is, indeed, a remarkably perceptive piece of work, one which many a well...
