Today the coonskin of Dartmouth takes the place in the Stadium of the blue-grey ranks of the Army. The stiffness of ordered regimentation characteristic of the military gives way to the informal enthusiasm of a college released on one of its biggest holidays. One doesn't have to make an effort to welcome Dartmouth to the Yard; her students are not honored guests who are to be greeted with formality and assiduously introduced to Harvard.
