That means spirits are high and the outlook promising, but given the inherent streakiness of the Crimson to date, one never knows. As we hand out Midterm grades, we understand that there is a lot of hockey left to be played--and for the first time in a while, Harvard must make up ground in February and March...

This, son, makes for interesting (if effortless) reading, and that is what gets A's. Underline them, capitalize them, inset them in outline form: be sure we don't miss them. Why do you think all the exams insist at the top, "Illustrate;" "Be specific;" etc? They mean it. The illustrations, of course, need not be singularly relevant; but they must...
