Art and Philosophy.

Il Is through their escape from
words that artists and musicians
paint and compose truer things than
philosophers say. things that survive
vicissitudes of thought and are as true
tomorrow as yesterday. With the
music of the Roman Catholic church
we all agree. and who shall contradict
the Venus de Milo?

ERCY LANGDON WENDELL,
nicknamed The Human Bul.
let" by Crimson u~ndergradu'
a.es, Is this years contribution OF
the famous Wendell family to Har-
ward athletics. An All-American
halfback last year by unanimous
choice. Wendell this year Is the
strongest man In the Harvard back
field. In fact, his work both on the
offense aad defense is the best seen
at Harvard for a number OF years.
Wendell Is admirably filling tho
place at the halfback position left
by his brother Jack" the star back
Of the Harvard team in 1907. who
also won for himself the coveted
distinction OF a place on Walter
Camps first eleven best men Of that
season.
Under the new rules, n plunging half
back that can be considered a con-
sistent ground gamer IL q decided
rarity. as the rules tend to prevent such
gaining. Whether or not there IS a hole
opened In the line. young Wendell may
always be depended upon to make a
substantial gain. and that this Is the
case must be attributed TO some innate
ability OF the man rather than any
backing he gets from his team mates.
WENDELL A sTockiLY BUILT
PLAYER.
One explanation Is this: As soon al
he takes the ball he wraps both arms
about the p!gskin. which IL carried
close 90 his stomach. and with heal
down starts OF with great speed
through the spot designated by tn
quarterback's signals. lie Is built Yer!
stocklly and when he thus gets hi
head down. unless he Is tackled Yer!
low. It Is almost impossible to brin,
him to earth. because Of the grea
weight he has to carry him along.
The tendency OF tacklers this seaso,
seems 10 be 10 tackle about the wais,
To try and bring Wendell to terra Arm
In this Is useless. for. In tn
