Case after case can be quoted where after four years of grinding a man has won his much coveted "H" in the spring of his Senior year; and again, where laziness has kept a good man from competing until he was discovered too late in his college career to develop into a point winner. The real issue we all of us have to face in life is ourselves.

Not only will the family receive the list of marks--a list that often lacks significance and is glibly interpreted by the student--but all his friends may know just how he stands. He will see that "dumb-bell" from Dedham stands well above his friend whom he used to think was pretty clever. Perhaps in the finals be will be able to outdistance the crack student...
