Analysis of figures of any kind is not always easy; often it is wholly unsatisfactory. The returns from the colleges, however, would seem to indicate certain definite developments. Primarily it is the large universities and technical schools which have benefited most by this new-found popularity of higher education. Take, for instance, the enrolment statistics of 11 of the representative big city or state universities -- Boston University, Columbia, Cornell, New York University, Northwestern, Syracuse, and the universities of California, Illinois, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Their total registration today is 90,947, compared with...
Hockey prospects this year seem unusually bright as there is a wealth of material, and a great many men who have had previous experience on University or Freshmen teams have reported this season. A total of nine "H" men have turned out so far, including Captain N. S. Walker '20. C. A. Clark Occ., however, has decided that he will not play this year...

But in spite of this, Gabriele d'Annunzio seems to be able to do what he likes with the army, whether the government likes it or not. To a more outsider it would seem a poor time for an Italian Premier to rail at Italy's allies...
...Tishman '21 and C. F. Peters '22 are expected to be the strongest contenders of this season. A. Levi '21 and N. R. Knox '21 have done the best work in the diving events in recent years, while F. S. Stranahan '21 and W. W. Douglas '22 seem to be the logical men for the dashes. Captain G. Tilton '20 and G. S. Worcester '22 are, judging from their previous exhibitions, the best all-around men that have shown up so far this year...
