...architect of Sever Hall might well get some hints for fitting up the professors' retiring-rooms from the arrangements of this car. A silver-plated hook for the professor to hang his hat on would be the first requisite. A nickel-plated lamp would also be very convenient at the four-to-five recitations in winter.

The Yale man looked plump and well-fed, but had evidently had very little of that training which gave the Harvard man his fine and clean-cut figure...
