This is the first year since the dual meets with Dartmouth began that a victory for the University team could not be predicted by a large score, though the chances still favor Harvard. Injuries have weakened both teams this spring, so that neither will be able to show its full strength this afternoon. R. C. Foster '11, H. Guild '10, W. H. Lacey '12, and M.

...first half of his lecture on "The Federal Regulation of Corporations," yesterday, Mr. Henry L.

The chief factors in this rapid growth are the limited liability of the investors...
...Brown is expected to pitch again for Virginia today. In the first game he was hit safely ten times, but kept the hits well scattered, and Harvard was only enabled to win on errors. Ernst will probably pitch for Harvard, though Long may be used for a part of the game...

This shows a disproportion between immediate ambition and relative permanent values, even as they stand in the mind of the undergraduate himself. Of course, the disproportion is due in large part to a contrast in the amount of applause...
