...smarter team defensively than Cornell--that the other team will have to take chances of wearing out players by depending on the rushing game. The Tigers played no mediocre game against Dartmouth, and those who figure that Princeton must be weak because they failed to outplay the green, are wrong. Dartmouth has an exceptional team, and it was not a sign of weakness to be pushed hard for four quarters by such a team...

...Harvard forwards were considerably befuddled by the hidden-ball plays, which Cornell had borrowed from Harvard, and frequently charged the wrong way. But, as pointed out above, the Ithacans were obliged to carry on their defensive line-breaking in their own territory. Harvard played her centre loose on defence, and this helped a lot. Cornell's centre had better have played similarly; but he didn't. Cornell is unquestionably a better team than she showed herself to be Saturday. She received a dose of genuine football class on Saturday, and it unsettled her. As for Harvard, any team that defeats...

When things are wrong in the world, now and then a man of fine spirit feels that he must go right out and do something to correct them. The spirit that moved Lafayette, Kosciusco and Garibaldi was keenly alive in this young man. The Republic of France will not forget him, and we all owe him a debt of gratitude for doing so much to testify to the desire of some of our countrymen to show an active sympathy...

...Coolidge '17 brought two messages from the Senior Class. "A Freshman feels as if he is a rather inconspicuous person, looked upon with contempt. He feels as if he must be apologetic to the upper class men. This is entirely wrong. The attitude of a Senior toward the Freshman is one of deepest interest. He realizes that difference of class does not mean a difference in personality. He is interested to meet and know the men who will succeed him in a few years...
