Hitherto these royal receptions of men have nearly always been held in St. James's Palace ("The Court of St. James") with the Sovereign driving thither in horse-drawn state from his residence at Buckingham Palace. This procedure Edward VIII, who has his apartments in a wing of St. James's Palace and uses Buckingham Palace merely as an office, varied in two precedent-shattering respects.

And from various European vantage-points (almost every poem has a different postmark) he hurls...

Bill Moore, scintillating captain-elect from Yale, takes the center position on the mythical sextet, while Captains Ken Willis of Princeton, and Paul Guibord of Dartmouth, hold down the flanking wing jobs. Rugged body-checkers, but not rugged enough to hold the Crimson forwards in check, from McGill, Captain Meikeljohn and Weigel win Stubbs' vote for the defense posts. Skillings of Brown, vigilant net minder, completes the team from his position of goalie...
