Individual competition has done more than anything else to make the nation what it is. Socialism is self-contradictory and opposed to deep-rooted and ineradicable human instincts. If everything is accessible to all, why should man strive for something that will not be remunerative to him? Each is proud of his own skill, knowledge, and ability.

...President of the Board of Overseers:--It is with a deep sense of responsibility that I receive at your hands these insignia of the office to which the governing boards have chosen me. You have charged me with a trust, second in importance to no other, for the education of American youth, and therefore for the intellectual and moral welfare of our country.

The outfield contributed some of the finest plays seen on Soldiers Field this year. In the first of the thirteenth Harvey sprinted to deep left centre and pulled down a hard drive of Wadsworth's. In the tenth Harvey made a swift and accurate throw to Currier off Young's hit that held Hamilton on third and gave Currier a chance to throw Young out at second. Dana and Aronson also did their share...
