Despite the fact that practically the same team started both the scrimmages held this week, the football season is still very much in its experimental stage. Especially is this true in the case of the ends and the quarterbacks. With a large number of strong ends and no veteran quarterbacks, Coach Arnold Horween '21 yesterday decided to strengthen his supply of signal callers at the expense of the wingmen. G. K. Brown '28, who has been playing regularly on teams A and B was shifted, temporarily at least, to quarter at the conclusion of the morning session.
The relative standing of the remaining ends is still a matter of much speculation. In the morning signal drill W. W. Lord '28 and B. H. Strong '28 held down the team A flank positions, while J. L. Coombs Occ, and John Prior '29 were the team B choices. In the afternoon Lord was again on team A with Prior as his running mate and Coombs and R. H. O'Connell '30 on the second combination. Two scrub team fackles, T. H. Alcock '28 and F. S. Davis '30 were taken up to the University squad at the conclusion of the morning work-out.
At the beginning of the second session R. W. Turner '28 was absent from the line-up, being forced to keep on the side lines on account of a pulled tendon which he suffered in the morning work-out. After individual work with the coaches the teams went through an exacting dummy scrimmage, and then ran
wise to learn early in his career. The Phillips Brooks House was built with funds contributed by a host of friends and admirers of Phillips Brooks. It was dedicated in 1901 in his memory to "Piety, Charity and Hospitality." With these three stones for a foundation the scope of its work has grown and is growing to include any and all service which may be of benefit to the students, the University or the Community. It has become the link between the store house of thought and action, that is the student body and the small world which surrounds it.
The work of the House is carried on by the Phillips Brooks House Association and is entirely in the hands of students. A cabinet, headed by an undergraduate president and made up of the chairmen of the various committees among which the work of the Phillips Brooks House Association is divided, determines the policies and practices of the organization. The Association is made up of the students who are participating in the work, and participation is the only requisite for membership. A graduate secretary lends his effort and advice to the work and to the cabinet. This is, in brief, the organization.
In the fall of the year, the first great effort of the Phillips Brooks House Association is in welcoming the new students and helping them to become acclimated. A Handbook containing condensed information on many subjects of interest to the new man is published and distributed until the depradations of upper classmen exhaust the supply. An information bureau is maintained in the parlors of the House during the week before registration. After registration, receptions are given for Freshmen, graduate students, and students from other countries. The work does not stop with receptions, however, and an "Open House" is held from time to time, particularly at Thanksgiving and Christmas. When the rush of opening week quiets down, the various functions of the Association begin to manifest themselves. The Social Service Committee helps all men who are interested in doing philanthropic work to find some outlet for their interest. About 200 Harvard men annually do work through this committee which varies in scope from Sunday School Teaching to Juvenile Court service. The
