January 14 found the University team immensely improved in all departments and the Dalhousie invaders were turned back to the tune of 4-1. Princeton was the next victim, and was defeated of Philadelphia, 3-0. The Crimson team, though gaining the decision, failed to come up to standard, but the next week witnessed a decided turn for the better when M. I. T. received a 9-2 set-back. This was the first defeat the Engineers had sustained, and thought playing in every respect up to their usual form, they were helpless before the University attack...
...over Yale, out of seven contests played, the one defeat having been at the hands of a Brooklyn five. The first triumph of the season was a 56-10 victory over Providence College on December 14, while two days later the University of Maine also fell a 48-19 victim to the Purple assault. Coach Casey gave his players no respite during the Christmas vacation, however, a flying four day visit to New York and Brooklyn resulting in three victories and one defeat, St. Francis, Brooklyn College, and the College of the City of New York being vanquished by overwhelming...
...make it intelligible. Jimmie Gubbins, reported dead by the indefatigable War Office, returns to Lunnon with his American pal, equally dead, and wanted besides in America for embezzlement (of which, strange to say, he is really guilty); with them comes a third pal, the unknown and unknowing Spoofy, a victim of gas aphasia with a penchant for "lifting".

In fact the play depends little on its lines; it is from character, incident, and pure stage effect that the author, Frederick...
Throughout the centuries, innocent Armenia has been the victim of the world's worst treatment. It is the oldest Christian community in the world; most of its suffering have arisen from its firm faith. America, always proud of its humanitarianism, has a particular reason for interest in Armenia. Having refused as a nation the political responsibility for its government, the least we can do as individuals is to contribute to this human cause. Christmas with us is a time of spending and enjoyment; it will be a small matter for most of us to spare something for the fund. Five...
...must do so with blinded or winking eyes. Mr. McLane is the first to reject it openly and convincingly, but of course the logical answer to his poem is that the legend from its very incompatibility is patently a lie, and reproach should be directed not against the victim but against the fabricators of it. As a piece of art, however, the poem is smoothy done, and, like the "Cassandra", remarkably well contained. The verse-form-irregularly rhymed lambio pentameter-is a most difficult one, yet Mr. McLane manages his rhymes so skillfully that it attains the most desired object...
