...personal feeling is that we must restrict the law profession to those whom we know to have had, in addition to an adequate preparation at college and at a certified law school, a thorough moral grounding. I don't believe this is possible by working out a scheme of an inner and outer bar such as has been proposed by the Carnegie report. In this system, the higher grade of lawyers would be permitted to practice in the inner bar, while those failing to attain this position, either from moral or legal failings, would have to content themselves with...
...facilities, her present population could have a modern standard of living. Nevertheless, if China continues to breed four generations in a century, instead of three, she can scarcely hope to make her resources keep up with her population. The problem is both social and economic; there must be both restriction of population and enlargement of industry. Indeed the problem is fundamentally religious, because she will not restrict her population until she radically modifies her ideas of ancestor worship...
...which is well enough, as far as it goes. But in spite of the "intellectualization" of football effected by Haughton, it is not always advisable to restrict our cerebral activity to the gridiron.

Bequests to various institutions, including Colby, on condition that they have no football teams are examples of gifts carrying with them provisos which restrict their usefulness. In this case rejection is easy, but it is often more difficult to balance good against evil. Mr. Wilson, as president of Princeton, fought a hard fight before persuading the trustees to reject a gift offered on condition that certain radical changes be made in the educational methods. Museums of art are often faced with the same difficulty when individuals donate their valuable though heterogeneous collections with the proviso that the whole be kept...
...Again, it would be likely to restrict the influence of the school by narrowing the field from which it draws." Dean Pound goes on to show how the numbers of the school have increased and how the number of localities represented has grown steadily larger. He states, too, that certain changes in the curriculum must be made in the near future, but there will be no necessity for any other very radical alterations...
