Traditionally too, the Boylston Contest is of peculiar interest. The Boylston competition is in its one hundred and eleventh year and may be fairly regarded as a Harvard tradition. Added to this romantic aspect are the names of some of the country's most distinguished men such as Holmes, Eliot, Norton, and Dana who were attracted as judges or competitors in these contests. Noteworthy is the fact that men of such as these so highly regarded these prize speaking competitions as to give their time and efforts to them. In furthering a Harvard tradition and in furnishing an incentive toward...
...favor of the outsiders. Unexpected Indian performances, cutting into the total of Cornell points, coupled with unforseen exhibitions by unheralded Harvard athletes may well give the University the edge necessary for a fifth victory.

...Statuary Hall at the Capitol, Washington, whither each State may send the images of its two most distinguished citizens after they have died.* Than the late, great La Follette, no noble Roman ever had a greater passion for justice or a greater vigor in its pur suit. His outward aspect, the material of sculpture, mirrored the temper of the man. He was compact, robust, wiry, alive with energy. His head was squarely, ruggedly shaped, with abundant hair swooping up in a reckless, leonine pompadour. He dressed with what Sculptor Davidson called "careless fastidiousness." Indicative of inward sensitiveness, his fingers were...
