...practice at Yale started Wednesday when 114 candidates reported for the university and freshman sevens. The men will be given conditioning runs this afternoon, and tomorrow practice on the rink will begin. The rink, being in New Haven, gives a much greater chance for steady practice than formerly, and wit a good nucleus from last year's squad, Yale should develop a strong team. The regulars who are back this season are Captain Burgess and Dickey, forwards; Bierworth and Murray, defence; and York, goal. Other likely candidates are Gould, Armour, and Jacobs from the 1918 freshman team; Speigle and Washburn...

...Ryder was probably the best poet at Harvard eight or nine years ago, and was the first to get the Garrison prize. This little book, in which he sixes up in funny poems the geniuses of the time, alphabetically arranged, is extremely clever, cheerful and full of delicate wit.
