...average undergraduate at Harvard College. In some lecture courses, theses are absolutely essential as there is no other method, except the examinations, of testing the students' ability, but in many other courses it does seem that reports and conference papers are crowded on us in too great profusion. The result is a tendency to turn out superficial and hasty work, and in some cases to resort to unfair means.

Gardner took second to Hartranft in the first heat, and Rand just beat out Craig for second in the other heat, which was won by Howe. The final heat was almost a repetition of the race at New Haven two weeks ago. Gardner led for part of the distance, but lost time in clearing the hurdles. On the last hurdle Howe secured a lead that gave him the race by the narrowest of margins. Hartranft and Rand had a close contest for third...
