...Harvard eleven defeated Amherst yesterday by the score of 41 to 0. Amherst was completely outclassed in every point of the game and at no time was able to gam any ground.

...first article, "The Relations of Radcliffe College with Harvard," by Professor Wendell, is most timely. At once vigorous and moderate, the writer certainly carries his point "that unless a strong public sentiment declares itself against the principle of co-education at Harvard, complete co-education will slowly establish itself here," and that we shall lose our "traditional school of manly character."
