...vital elements of every true extra curricular activity are first, eager, spirited competition; second, a more or less public reward. Neither of these is absolutely necessary or even necessarily desirable for the relatively few genuinely interested in whatever activity they are engaged in. These few would row even if there were no crews; they would write sonnets even if there were no Advocate.
