After battling through four hard-fought periods, the Sophomore and Senior football teams remained in a scoreless deadlock at the close of yesterday afternoon's game. Each team had scoring chances; the Sophomores lost an excellent opportunity in the first quarter when the 1927 line stiffened after yielding ground steadily before a strong attack, and then broke through to block a Sophomore drop-kick.

Both men attack on the ground of excessive scholarship, the intensive study of minutae, the coercion of minds in the period of growth into too narrow channels. The man who goes through the mill is to each of these men a repulsive, or at least uninteresting creature. Mr. Pingree believes of holders of this degree that they have "wasted three of the best years of their lives and trent their minds into as tortured positions as Buddhistic fakirs bend their bodies." Mr. Marks says of the same person that "if he wants his doctorate in English, he must Forego knowledge...
