...fashioned sixes. The 'Rah! 'Rah! 'Rah! was then first heard; that of Harvard rolled out with a full strong sound, while that of Yale was given sharply and defiantly. Although both cheers look the same in print, the similarity is more apparent than real. Anyone who has ever been present at an athletic contest between these rival Universities will have readily observed the difference between the cheers.

These receptions are in accordance with a long standing custom of President Dwight's predecessors but perhaps it is more looked forward to now than ever, as it is the principle means of bringing the students to a closer intimacy with the president, since he has given up the idea of meeting them in the class-room, in order to devote himself more completely to the requirements of the university at large.
