Professor Arnold Dresden, of Swarthmore, president of the Mathematical Association of America, will correct the papers, and only mathematicians will be able to understand the scoring. Although D. V. Widder '20, associate professor of Mathematics, and Lieutenant C. F. Robinson of the Army, the two coaches, declined to predict the outcome, it is reported that the Crimson figure chasers had the edge.
