...injury to Captain Burr, which at first appeared to be merely a wrench of the arm, has proved to be more serious. On closer examination it was found that the shoulder itself was badly injured and one or two of the ligaments torn. This being the case, it is impossible for him to play against either Carlisle or Dartmouth, but it does not prevent the possibility of his being able to play against Yale at New Haven on the twenty-first. The tearing of the ligaments which has taken place will take considerable time to heal, but it remains...
...problem for the coaches and the team which is hard to overestimate. To be deprived of a linesman of three years experience, whose kicking alone, measured in terms of ground gained, is invaluable, and in addition, a real leader and captain--it is hard to imagine a more serious blow. The two games in the coming fortnight will test Harvard's strength to the limit, and with Burr out of the line-up it will be doubly hard. It is hoped that he will be able to play the Yale game, at least for part of the game...
...University team had its first hard game Saturday with the Naval Academy, and has come to the more serious part of its schedule. The three games before the annual contest with Yale all promise to be close, and the team will have a real try-out. At present the line from tackle to tackle looks permanent. Crowley is practically a fixture at right end, and Browne is doing well at the opposite position. Houston, who has been laid up the greater part of the season, is getting into shape again, and should show up well from now on. R. Brown...
...achievements in literature and the fine arts. The more than liberal expenditure of time in helping others told upon the amount of his own literary production. Of his exhaustive studies, and widely-known translations, of Dante (which have international reputation as of foremost excellence) I need not speak; but serious students of the fine arts must regret that of books like "Church Building in the Middle Ages" we could not have had more. As a teacher of the History of the Fine Arts in Harvard University Professor Norton strove, by directing attention to the finest historic monuments, to awaken...
Public sentiment in the beginning was that we had made a serious mistake in assuming the responsibility for these islands, and that we should find problems there which we could not overcome. This feeling is now changed, and we have succeeded beyond our greatest hopes in the administration of the Philippines. A government is successfully established; the necessary bureaus and offices are arranged; justice is given to all; the islands are strictly self-supporting, and require no financial help from the United States. The archipelago is in good sanitary condition, disease is eliminated as far as possible, roads, railways, harbors...
