EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - Gentlemen: "John Donne's" attack on Professor Hill makes it worth while to inform new-comers of one or two facts. Fifteen years ago there was no English Department here Professor Child offered several elective courses, I believe, but burdened as he was with themes, could not give the college the full benefit of his scholarship; beside Professor Child there were one or two transient instructors in Rhetoric - transient because at that time the attitude of students toward the study of their own language left little hope in life for the man who undertook to teach them...

Piper makes a long rush of thirty-five yards, and Perry gains fifteen yards but Yale gets the ball at length about the middle of the field. Wurtemburg gets through the rush-line but is stopped by Perry who throws him with a vicious snap. Morrison kicks a beautiful low kick which Sears only gets twenty yards from our line. In a few moments Yale gets...
