...improvement is to come. It is to be regretted that the committee could not have gone even farther, and confined athletics simply to undergraduates, but this obviously could not be done, for it would be impossible to impugns the motives of graduates returning to college. The present rules therefore seem the wisest and best that could have been made under the circumstances...

If the student will but fairly ask himself the question, "what after all is the purpose of college life?" he cannot fail to see the justice of the faculty's regulation. College life is free and easy...
