...other courses, among them Physics C and Biology D, have comparable marking systems; but the rest, though they may shout to the skies that they have complete coordination among their sections, can give no air-tight proof of fact. They can only refer vaguely to the "common sense" of their instructors. True, the common sense of a great many staffs is extremely good, but other courses have failed utterly to bring any order or continuity out of the various theories and marking systems of their section...
...often is it glibly stated that tutoring in its corrupt form can never be abolished at Harvard: at best it can be driven underground.

...possibly Sophomore Charley Brackett will share pitching chores with him. Bob Fulton will be the starting backstop, but a rapidly-improving Chief Boston may see a bit of service, too. Fred Heckel will again get the starting call at shortstop in place of injured Fred Keys, and the rest of the regular lineup remains intact...
