the remarks DR.. Archer Jordan is al
legged to have made at the recent Col
by day banquet Under the heading
"A Few Facts the Orient takes DR..
Jordan to task for misrepresenting the
athletic record of Colby and Bowdoin.
The misrepresentation. if any, was
certainly not made by Dr. Jordan. and
the Orient is at fault in not ascertain

total of u games" as the Orient has

been playing together. Colby had won
five times. and DR.. Jordan carefully
added that in the earlier years. two
games We're played each season. These
facts accord strictly with those which
the Orient itself presents
