...trees are carved in a way which would be impossible after the impost block was set in place. Many archeologists have believed that the beautiful carving of these capitals indicated a date well advanced in the twelfth century and that the capitals must, therefore, have been sculptured long after they were set in place.

There is little fear that the major ills of which the Carnegie report treats will become epidemic. They have long been rampant, and the cycle points downward. Misapprehension that the frontier football spirit will ricochet back to the Eastern seaboard is not so much the belief of intelligent students of the game, as that the Eastern attitude may soon go West.
