The reported elopemept of Ira *
Sims and Bertha Doll, last week, was
untrue. It was only another of ^Tot ^

Bill Kredit has bought a new sev- 0

the Founders. j
On Saturday. November. 23, at/New
Hnven. the Yale and Harvard football
gladiators matched 'their wi'A and
stamina In a struggle for vlctbry before
forty thousand persons ,of both
sexes waving flags and shotting at
the top of their lungs. It is a pity
that Dr. David F. Atwater of Springfield.

performance, for there whs nothing
like It In his days at college. The
Spectacle would be too strenuous for
'.he old gentleman, however, and as
for getting to the field of battle and
returning safely to his home without
jhyslcnl hurt or mental collapse. It Is
lot to be thought of as feasible at his ;
lge. Football as a visual diversion Is
i game for youth and for vigorous
niddle life.
When Dr. At^ater was at New Hav?n_
the students were not athletic.
tVhat they spent on college sports
vould scarcely ly?ve filled a blind
nan's cup with coppers. " The doctor
emembers a gyrninaslum, but It was
rery small, the apparatus was meager,
ind the students made little use of it.
">ne does not Have to go further back
han the late seventies at Harvard to
emember that the gymnasium of that;
lomparatlveiy modern day was a clriular
brick building not much larger!
han a prosperous farmer's smoke- j
louse; ridiculously primitive and In- j
dequate wfas the equipment accord
ng to latter day notions, and the su erintendeht
was a stout gray little
nan who Jcould spar and fence a bit.

To return to Yale in 1834-39, physial
prowess seems to have been demandedA>nly
when "town" and "gown"
ought Atgether, and brute strength !
ras than more In evidence than skill
m boxing and wrestling./ The college
sader in such affrays was known as
fajor P-uliy, the biggest and sturdiest
nan in 4 his class, according to Dr..
XwaterV Yale men were much given
o debating and literary expression.
iLlnonla.*' "Brothers In Unity" and
Calliope,^* were some of the societies
quipped with libraries and bristling
rlth logicians, the rivalry between
hese orfranications being Intense,
imusem As of any kind wpre limited,

Benjamin Silliman was arguing |

The college landings then consistd
of & row of Vjrick dormitories, a

ulldlng in whlchihe recitations were
ield; round theim an ran the old
/ooden "Yale fen^." Entrance exmlnatlons
were ora and exclusively
lasslcal. Flint an A tinder supplied
snitlon; imported fiction matches,
ew in number, were regarded as dan:erous.
