Statistics recently taken at Cornell indicate that there is a fallacy in the theory that the average participant in two branches of sport is not good student. Records based on the work of the first term show that football men have never had such a high standing in the history of the university, for of the work taken by those members of the football squad who won their letters, 93 per cent. was passed, 5.3 per cent. was conditioned, and only 1.7 per cent. failed...

Its music, moreover, is up to the usual high standard, particularly the overture and the music for the dances which displayed unusual qualities of rhythm and melody. But it may not be out of place to speak of certain defects in "The Lady Decides" which appear to be inherited from year to year and which may be found in practically all undergraduate performances of this nature.
