...operative Society has recently published a book of views about the College, including cuts of all the University buildings. There seems to be an entire lack of plan in the arrangement of the views, making the book rather inconvient "for easy reference."

This lack of fighting spirit was noticeable especially in the half backs. Frequently on line plays they failed entirely to help each other through holes, and this lost good opportunities to score. The interference ran fairly smoothly, but was so slow in starting that the plays were often smothered before they formed...
