...requirement at twelve cents chiefly because it did not take the trouble to look into the matter than that it clips one stamp off each lot and lays the proceeds up against a rainy Saturday. The explanation is simple: the Athletic Association figures its postage account even as closely as does the writer, and, furthermore, it has found in past years when only ten cents in postage was required that it has been obliged to pay in the neighborhood of $300 to cover the extra postage required on letters that are over weight. All of the writer's assumptions...
