We cannot be accused of considering football the ultimate goal toward which to strive, but the real goal is the successful application of trained intelligence in everything; if we do not bring this about, people think something is wrong. We take satisfaction in Burr's staying out of the game for the good of the team, while the Yale Alumni Weekly criticizes Burch's playing as a mistake.
