...fact in connection with the Boylston Prize contest of this evening has occasioned considerable comment amon those intending to compete. This year, in direct opposition to the established precedent, the would-be prizemen have had no regular rehearsal of their parts. In former years, it has been the custom to lay aside, in a degree, the work of the elocution department, for the purpose of giving systematic training to those about to contest for the Boylston prizes.

The services in the college chapel are of so unsec tarian a nature that any regular attender would soon see how absurd is the idea that brands Harvard as a "Unitarian college." A true view of the case can only be obtained by those who lead the daily life of the university and are in active contact with its observances. Unfortunately this impartial view cannot be obtained...
