...power which ought never to have been theirs--the power of threatening the nation with a period of economic helplessness. Had these measures been in force the Adamson Bill might never have passed, the painful twisting of the Lever Act might have been unnecessary,--in short, the disgraceful interim in government by the peoples' representatives might never have occurred...
...Grant '73, the football leaders in 1872 established the Harvard Football Club. The code of rules drawn up by these pioneers at Cambridge combined both the Association and Rugby codes, thus preventing the University's advent as an intercollegiate competitor for two more years, limiting their games in the interim to class and club contests...
Seventy-five candidates have reported for the Princeton eleven, and of these, none have ever played regularly on a Varsity team, although many were members of their freshman elevens.

C. Gennert, halfback and centre of the last team...

For blind idealizing, even of the pertinacious, youthful sort, can readily be shattered without recourse to the more than bromidic--the bromidiac -- near-brilliant pink-shirt-stud...
