During a long and hard practice yesterday the University team scored three touchdowns, two by Nichols on runs of 40 and 50 yards respectively and one by Randall on a 35-yard run. Particular attention was paid by the coaches to fumbling. Owing to the interchange of men on the two teams, their strength was evenly balanced and each held the other frequently for downs.

Mr. guild began his address by speaking of the great privilege American citizenship conveys at this particular time. The country has nothing to fear from without. Its only danger is from within.

The country needs strong young men who will give richly...

...will, however probably be able to resume work within a day or two. In the second boat, R. Foster was moved to stroke, and his old place at six was filled by Sanger.
