...newspaper hero. Although the Cambridge Indian Rights Association, perhaps, did not have Harvard students particularly in mind when Sanders Theatre was selected as the place for the meeting, we assure the association that Harvard appreciated the opportunity to hear Gen.

There is not a car running on the Cambridge line to-day. The Harvard students in Cambridge think that it would be great sport to run a car tonight and fill it with students having university men for conductor and driver. They also propose to follow up the car with a small army of students, and have a "rough and tumble," as they call it, with the strikers.
