Why?

TIVE educational advantages are
l. certainly as good at Harvard
II not better--than az any other big
university and the associations that
can be made among the student body
Of Cambridge surely are as valuabls
as they arc at Yale or Princeton.
Perhaps the tuition and the
overhead at Harvard restrict the
student body to boys Of wealthy
families and the social exactions
confine the undergraduates to
the offspring Of aistocracy, but
thac are plenty of athletes with
money and family behind them
nj Yale and Princeton and other
big universities.
There must be some reason. II is
mp 70 Harvard TO find the reason.
and II is beside the point 10 discuss
any theories here because theories
are not always solutions and only
Harvard Is In pain over the situation.
Harvard has been beaten three
years in a row by Dartmouth. and
TO an article in a recent
Issue OF tho Harvard Alumni Bulle-
tin, Dartmouth will beat Harvard
every time they meet in the future
unless some changes are made at
Harvard.
only two avenues of escape from
the Dartmouth oppression are open
either quit PLAYING Dartmouth or get
a better team than Dartmouth.
