...lightest and fastest elevens seen in Cambridge in recent years ran through a snappy signal drill on the Stadium turf late yesterday afternoon. This team which will represent Purdue against the University this afternoon at 3 o'clock will go into today's game outweighed by almost 14 pounds to the man. What they lack in weight the Westerners will attempt to make up in speed and accurate handling of the ball. Few plays, according to information gathered in the Boilermaker's camp yesterday afternoon, are likely to be directed at the Crimson guards this afternoon. Off tackle slants...
Donaghy is the lightest halfback of the University squad. But he is also one of the toughest, the hardest to down, and the most level headed. In the 34 to 0 defeat his Freshman team suffered at the hands of Yale two years ago his playing stood out as one of the few bright spots in a gloomy afternoon.

He also has an awkward habit of sticking his elbows out at the finish. LeMoyne is the shortest and lightest candidate, but does his full share of the work; should he part with his faults, he will make an efficient oar Jacobs is doing well at 7, but fails to use his arms properly. He drops his hands before taking hold, does not pull them in high enough, and has, like...
Second comings are less breathless than firsts. Mr. Arlen will not again encounter overt U. S. curiosity about his fancy waist and waistcoats, his night-club complexion, his affinities and affectations. He will not feel whole literary cocktail parties hanging on his lightest utterance, for it is well agreed now what he can and cannot say; what a pleasantly trite clam he is sometimes and how low he once brought bold Edna .Ferber in a single exchange of shots about looking feminine.** He will be permitted to enjoy himself and the U. S. this time and his real friends...
