...must look for the advancement of its scholarship. But we think that both the Nation and Mr. Wister, in urging their point, have neglected the position of the undergraduate. Their ideal is that of progress in unexplored regions of literature, art and science. Ours is the development of "second-string" men, who, while profiting themselves by the words of eminent authorities, will pave the way for a gradual improvement in real scholarship. To our undeveloped minds this ideal seems nobler than devotion to original research, and until financial resources make possible the parallel development of the two ideals, we must...
...line-up, Starr taking his place at quarterback. Houston ran through signals at left end. It is still undecided as to who shall play left end, but there is strong probability of Houston's starting the game in that position, owing to injuries to the first string men.

...substitute ends, Bird and Forster, and Inches, who substituted Hoar at right tackle, put up fully as good a game as the first string men. Inches was down the field well under punts and was right after the ball all the time. Burr played his new position at tackle well, but was considerably handicapped by his inexperience in that position. Grant at centre played a very quick game, followed the ball well and blocked a kick which Inches secured for a touchdown. Starr, who started at quarterback, ran the team with life and dash and ran back punts for substantial...
