...present issue is not a perfect specimen of its kind, it is not the fault of the board. Not only is material scarce at the beginning of the College year, but graduate editors--called in rather as distinguished contributors than as stopgaps--do not always excel undergraduates. In Norman Hapgood's article, "Germany's Disease," for instance, we have but a hurried and slight presentation of something that deserves fuller treatment and might receive better development at the hands of some undergraduate. It is well to dispute the larger avowals of Germany's "defensive" position which have gone forth backed...
...forward pass, labelling it dangerous after a few experiments. The great barrier to its success has been lack of serious practice on the part of the men making the play. Men spend hour after hour in practicing drop and place kicking and punting and in other ways perfecting themselves in specialties.

McIntosh ignominiously struck out, Herter could only touch Morris's remarkable delivery for an easy infield grounder on which he died at first, and the next man fanned.

The student who chooses this Division will be presumed to have made the choice with serious intent to perfect himself in that line. The student who chose that work because he had to concentrate in something may well feel he is getting more than he bargained for. This is not a criticism; the result-to make study in that division more in the way of laboratory work, to lift it out of the region of inconsequent eclectic undergraduate education may be more serious...
