...often tolerated and even commended by many of the professors at Harvard. Indeed, when the object of a course is mainly literary and aims less at mere mental drill, it is difficult to see what objection can be urged to their use, and why their use does not result, on the whole, in a saving of time and labor. The traditional college training, with its strict academical customs, of course is very apt to regard with horror any toleration of the use of the ubiquitous "trot," and to set down such a liberty as a moral sin.

Nichols hit hard for two bases, but was left on second...

The Courant confesses that, in case of defeat, the existence of the freshmen throughout their college life would have been a miserable one. "As to the 'result,' had our freshmen met defeat, we can form no conception. No class now in college ever knew of such a deplorable state of affairs. Yale is the wrong place for the unsuccessful man, and defeat is not popular. Like the Spartan mother, we say, 'return with your shield...
