...that his marks were low, and the other man's were high. The professor had evidently mixed up the names, and Jones remonstrated. An adjustment was promised; yet next month came the same mistake. For the third month the marks were correct; the fourth time brought around the same error...

The reshers block fairly well, but have grown somewhat careless, and have allowed some of the college men to get through when a try-at-goal is being attempted. They should remember that blocking the Harvard or Princeton eleven...
