...Controverted questions. Necessity of the siege of Yorktown. Propriety and effect of withholding McDowell from McClellan. What McClellan should have done after the battle of May 31 and June 1. What McClellan should have done when at tacked on his right by Lee, June 27, 1862, etc., etc., etc. Especially question of possibility of McClellan's moving on Richmond by the James, in (say) August...
...provided for. The definition of professional was tacitly understood not to be the common one, but a graded distinction of ordinary professionals by which those who teach for a living are not excluded, but it reaches those who give public exhibitions, or exercise tendencies which would have a bad effect. The principle involved seemed to be clear to all, and it is perhaps better that such should be the case than that a set form of words should be adopted.

Yale it is probable will not adopt them. It necessarily follows then that following from the provisions of the 8th and last resolution all the present inter-collegiate associations of which Yale is a member will be disbanded. Of course the weight of all this and of re-organization, if any such takes place, falls upon the present teams. Practically by these measures student...
