...train every day at noon, an hour which for many is free. While it is altogether probable that if the whole college congregated on Holmes Field at that hour, it would interfere with the work of the men, there is every reason to suppose that a lively display of interest would prove a great encouragement to the men who are working hard for Harvard's success...
