Candidates for the Freshman wrestling team who reported to Coach Anderson for the first practice of the year yesterday numbered over 40, many of them being men who had chosen crew or football during the fall.

Even though the obnoxious idea in question is momentarily crushed, and the man who advanced it is discharged, there is a doubly evil effect--the question is brought into greater prominence than before, and others professors find themselves afraid to step at all beyond the limits of complete conventionality. For fear of suppression they dare not carry on their work nor their investigations...
