Moreover, the long vacations will give them months on the Continent to see and study Europe during this unusual period of rest and reconstruction. Surely this will create international good fellowship as no formal balance of power or league could do. We hope the time is not far distant when the French universities will extend similar opportunities...

This will be the first contest with Yale since 1917 and marks the resumption of formal intercollegiate athletics. Little is known concerning the Yale team which has not as yet played in any collegiate contests. The University team has a record of four straight victories and no defeats, but will be hampered by the small size of the Brooklyn rink and the lack of indoor practice. In weight the teams are evenly matched, the average being, for the University...
