...meet the winning Yale class shell on the Housatonic two weeks from tomorrow. The first Eliot crew scored an easy victory over Thayer in the race for the Inter-Club championship, in a contest greatly marred by the handicap which the losing eight sustained when one of their seats split in two at the end of the first quarter-mile and left the shell with but seven active sweeps during the remainder of the mile course. In the opening event of the regatta the 3rd Freshman boat defeated Stone School by an easy margin...

On the other hand, a re-assertion on the part of all the allies of the principles of President Wilson and the new Russian democracy, as well as their actual interpretation, would split the democratic from the imperialistic elements in Germany. Such a movement would accomplish our armies in the war no less than military success. The United States does not have to go through three years of war to find out that it is fighting for far higher things than, for example...
