...track team, including the field event men who have hitherto been practicing in the Gymnasium and on Holmes Field, are urged to report today on Soldiers Field for regular work. The Stadium track was raked and rolled Saturday and should be in fairly good condition today. The snow should melt quickly and probably will not hinder the work of the track team materially. If, however, the ground is not in suitable condition the field event men will practice under the Stadium, while the runners will probably go out on the roads as heretofore...
...play when they scored two touchdowns in four minutes. Wherever they hit the line the backs went through for long gains. On the defensive, the line held strongly and not once did Pennsylvania gain a yard through the centre. On the other hand, Pennsylvania's line seemed to melt away as soon as the ball was snapped, and the runner was frequently thrown for a loss. On the offensive, Harvard's line opened up holes well and played a strong, hard game...

Truth and elegance mark his style, but not fire or splendor...

As a heavy fall of snow, that, for the time, blocks all communication among men, is melted away in the presence of a genial sun; so the barriers of sect disappear and must disappear before such a kindly personality as that of the gentle preacher of Harvard. Men like him do not break barriers, they melt; they do not make an attack, they create an atmosphere...
...work well. Gresham's law is counteracted by a multitude of causes. Some declare that in the event of free coinage, silver bullion will pour in upon us from other countries. But it is not to be supposed that the possessors of silver plate and silver ornaments will melt them up for our benefit. Moreover, we ought to have free coinage to protect the silver interest. We protect other industries and should not make an exception to the detriment of the silver men. We need an increasing currency to meet the constantly increasing demands of the business of the country...
