...several months. But as Mr. Forney may always be considered a well-wisher of the college world his words deserve notice. He has a good word to say for the college press: "It is pleasant," he says, "to see that the college papers so far from defending the ill conduct of students, invariably condemn it in unmeasured terms.

It is the prevalent opinion here that the warm advocacy of this measure comes with but ill grace from the college whose nine has suffered defeat at the hands of Dartmouth in four out of the six contests in which the two have been engaged. It is doubtless true that Dartmouth will make no violent opposition to the proposition, choosing rather to submit quietly to a manifest injustice...
