...caught a punt standing on his 20-yard line and wormed his way 80 yards through the entire Princeton combination. Neidlinger and Wight, halfbacks, were very effective, and the coaches demonstrated they had two excellent substitutes for them in Warner and Ped. The latter kicked an emergency goal in perfect style, while Warner celebrated his entrance in the contest by a 15-yard run to within five yards of the Tiger's goal...
...familiar quartettes of Beethoven and Haydn received careful and intelligent performances; the former especially was rendered in perfect ensemble and spirit. Le Clair's charming sonata gave a taste of French Seventeenth Century music, which delighted the audience. In this selection the viola work of M. Artiere appeared to great advantage. Dohnanyi's quartet, romantic in its emotional content, seemed the favorite of those present, and by far was the most interesting work on the program, with its sustained chords and surging melody, freely Magyarian in technique and feeling...
...trailed to the tune of 18 to 44. E. Siemens, the Yale captain, recently elected to fill Reed's place, was the first runner to cross the tape in the University race. His time was 34 minutes, 21 seconds. Although Siemens ran a well-judged race and finished in perfect condition, his time was 51 seconds slower than John Overton's record of 33 minutes, 30 seconds, made over the same course in 1916. Vander Pyl, the second Yale man, was about 50 yards behind Captain Siemens. Cros-by and Hilles of Yale finished arm and arm for third...
Four more years of Democratic domination would mean four more years of Wilson. Like France under the reign of Louis XIV, America would be subjected to four more years of autocracy, for Governor Cox is "in perfect accord" with President Wilson,-"1'Etat c'est moi." This danger of absolute centralization of power in the head of our nation is a menace that must be recognized. Opposition to such a menace is no heresy, and as Wendell Phillips said "when your house is on fire, you do not give a moderate alarm." Business interests in the East are demanding release...
...Freshman backfield, Jenkins lived up to his reputation for dependability, gaining consistently and playing an almost perfect game defensively. At quarter, Lee began to show his true value, piloting his team steadily and with splendid judgment. Until injured, F. K. Kornan, who really holds first claim on the pivot position, passed beautifully and blocked in an imposing manner. C. Bradford, his running mate, showed up in much the same light, however, stopping Andover backs behind the line on four occasions. The contest between these two should be close and interesting, though Kernan is the more finished player...
