...with the 'varsity football squad for three years and can say that under Cumnock and Trafford there was absolutely no partiality. With regard to the crews under Perkins, Kelton and Vail, with which I was brought closely in contact, I never saw the slightest favoritism or heard any charge of it.

The consideration in its pages of questions connected...
...letter of explanation and retraction offered by a Boston firm for their inexcusable attack on the character of a Harvard man does perhaps as much as can be done towards undoing a despicable act. But the taking back of such a charge as was made in this case, never receives the prominence of the charge itself. Every man has the power of inflicting immeasurable injury on others by even the most groundless imputations. A careless use of this power is morally unpardonable, if it is not absolutely criminal...
