...southern trip during the spring vacation this year, in order to give the men experience and training at a time when the weather does not permit advantageous out of door practice in this vicinity. Harvard has never before seriously contemplated such a trip and the advantages will doubtless be great. Games will be arranged with Georgetown, U. of Virginia, U. of North Carolina, and other southern colleges...

In other words, those who are most deficient in speaking and most in need of the training of these courses should not be excluded altogether from...
