Defeated in the final game of the season, the 1921 team will go down as one of Yale's great elevens and Malcolm Aldrich as one of Yale's greatest captains. Yale Daily News...

There is one very real difference between the proposal for a separate Department of Education at Washington and the proposal for a Department of Welfare. The first is a perfectly definite plan which has grown out of a long history of increasing Federal activity in educatioin; the second has no such history behind it. The educational measure is not the discovery of any one individual, but a plan gradually matured after a century of experience. Literally millions of citizens, through such organizations as the chambers of commerce, the American Federation of Labor, and the National League of Women Voters, have...
