...That this is a real danger was illustrated in this country at the time of the signing of the armistice. Then it was not unusual to see on the cover page of a single magazine or grouped together on a single platform, such grotesque combinations as a Russian anti-Czarist who had learned in his youth to respect Lenine and an Irish agitator or agitatress; a Western I. W. W. angered because of the treatment of his leaders in our courts and an eastern highbrow who had detected an inconsistency in the government's policy; a former editor...
...appearance of Fritz Kreisler, the Austrian violinist. In constituting itself a dictator of artistic productions it allies itself against the very principles for which it fought. By its virtual prohibition of Mr. Kreisler's playing it takes an attitude that is Prussian in essence, and diametrically contrary to real Americanism. There is nothing un-American or unpatriotic in listening to great music. Art transcends international boundaries -- a thing is beautiful whether it is American, or German, or Czecho-Slovakian, in its origin. Mr. Kreisler, while he is Austrian and fought three months against Russia, being honorably discharged after wounded...
Radical labor was taught a lesson in the Massachusetts election, but it was not a constructive lesson.

Not until this year's team had been given a taste of real football for one-half of the Princeton game did they find themselves. From then on nothing could stop them. Not until the undergraduates saw their team fighting to the last ditch at Princeton did they know what backing was. After that none could be more loyal...
...first real test of the season came on October 11 in a game with the heavy Worcester Academy team, where the Freshmen showed their power and aggressiveness in a 27-10 victory. Toward the end of the game, with the entrance of many substitutes, the yearlings' attack gradually weakened, allowing Worcester to score twice. Far too many fumbles were made in this game and the Freshmen were unable to complete a single really successful pass. W. H. Churchill starred for the Crimson team and gave an indication of what might be expected of him later...
