With many of the regulars of both the informal and Freshman hockey teams absent and only a small squad reporting for practice, yesterday's workout on the Charlesbank rink was rather light. The cold wind also served to cut the practice short. The 1921 squad was without the services of F. Avery, Bacon C. Stillman and Sessions, but a scrub team was formed from the remaining Freshmen which competed in a short contest at the end of practice with Team A, composed mostly of members of the informal squad...
...number of technical errors and of lapses in artistic taste, but its substance is thin. Of the 15 pieces in this number--an editorial article, a literary criticism, a narrative of the French front, five pieces of prose fiction and seven "poems"--only one poem, "Ode to the East Wind," by Mr. C. La Farge, shows at once sincerity and artistic feeling; and even this is marred by several bad lines.

...first two periods Coach Leary's team outplayed the Reservists and ended the half with a six-point lead. Black of the Newport team kicked off to E. L. Casey '19, who ran the ball back 20 yards. With a strong wind behind them, the Navy Yard started a kicking game, and Adams punted. Barrett, the Cornell star, returned the ball 37 yards from his 30-yard line, but the ball was soon lost when A. Horween '20 intercepted Gerrish's forward pass. Neither team could make decisive gains on line plays throughout the period. The value of Adams' long...
