"Kvi ry championship game played

any of these muck rakers either in
side or outside the ranks of profes

DEST TEAM WON
"Regardless of the alleged at
tempted 'fixing' of (he iirst two
gr.mes ot the last world's series, I
always have contended, and do now
conicnd that the best team won the
pennant on the level.
"If the testimony given by Pitcher
Denton, of our New York club ia

accounts then that fellow either per

"His contradictory statements will
be carefully gone over at the proper

For him to wear that prep affair,

I They'll soak him with a canvas club,

They have a pleasing custom at
Dartmouth. Long years of experience
hae taught tho undergraduates of,

tho verdant freshman; just how to
school him and make a man of him.
Each summer the prospective fresh
man gets a nice long letter of advice, i
sen! him by the Y. M. G. A at Han-j
lover, which handles such matters In,
tho absence of the student body
...
This letter tells the freshman pretty
much all tho things he should know
I Among other things It gives him this
wonderful bit of advice
... ,
If you have any prep school medals,,
j or sweaters with letters on them, or
'any other symbols Of athletic prowess
1 LEAVE Til EM AT Hi 'ME
...
Of course, the above is not quoted,
literally from the letter Not BV p
the M C. A would use such words
as symbols and prowess in writing lo
a freshman. They give It to him in
words of one syllable
. . .
Anyhow, the letter goes on to say
that it is advisable for the freshman
to leave all evidences of athletic skill
at home because those high school
trifles don't mean anything at college
and he is coming to Hanover to begin
a new life "
...
Now that's coining advice There
is nothing that hampers a freshman's
early career In college like conceit,
i if course, all freshmen are conceited,
but the freshman w no can conceal his
conceit will aold a lot of trouble. j
...
High school gridiron, track and dia

great deal In his college life. They!
help freshmen to make good fraterni-j
