...orchestra crash "Fair Harvard," and the conductor wave an appealing baton to absolutely silent and unresponsive hearts and throats? Those of us who remember Harvard boys when their blood ran crimson and ran swift, did not recognize the genus that in irreproachable claw-hammers and faultless ties patted well-gloved hands together in rythmic applause that night.
