"Murphy was one of the greatest sprinters this world ever had. They called him 'stucky' because he had so much grit and determination. The year after Mike died the Intercollegiate was held at Cambridge. All the trainers got together and a lot of flowers were sent out to Mike's grave in Hopkinton, Massachusetts." Pooch Donovan's success at Harvard goes hand in hand with that of Haughton.

In both class room and intercollegiate debating each side usually makes two speeches, a main speech and a rebuttal speech. The main speech ordinarily extends over a period of from seven to twelve minutes, according to the rules governing the contest, and is largely constructive in nature.

They were all fast, and Homans was perfect in judgment on fly balls, and Raymond was quick as lightning to knock down base hits, and as to the intercollegiate sprinter in left field, it was simply a breath-taking event to see him run after a ball. Last of all was Ken Ward with his great arm.

One cannot help feeling that since they do not open their doors to men they should do something more toward working out an ideal education for women than they have so far undertaken. When the Association of Intercollegiate Alumnæ met in New York, in the autumn of 1911, its discussions gathered around the possibility of adding to college courses subjects of special value to women.

Helene Buhlert Magee, Wellesley, '03, who was made Chairman of the Intercollegiate Committee on Press Bureaus, in 1914, and was at that time also the Manager of the Wellesley Press Board, reminds us that Wellesley is the only college trying to regulate its publicity through its alumnae clubs in different parts of the country, and gives us reason to hope that in time we shall have publicity agents trained in good methods, "since the members of each year's College Press Board, as they go forth, naturally become the press representatives of their respective clubs."

De Peyster wrathfully. "This is what comes of your attending that Intercollegiate Socialist thing in college! I protested to the president against the college harboring such unsettling influences, and urged him to put it out." "Well, dear old prexy did his best to comply." "It's that Socialist thing! As for what you propose, I simply will not have it!" "No?

This led to some bitter discussion between Yale and Princeton as to whether the game had been played. This discussion was settled by the intercollegiate committee in declaring that Yale had won the game, 4 to 0, but that no championship should be awarded. It is interesting to note, however, that all the gold footballs worn by the Yale players of this game are marked 'Champions, 1886.

Out through the front door he dashed headlong, in time to behold Fresno and the two girls assisting the new arrival toward the veranda. They were exclaiming in pity, and had their arms about the athlete, for Culver Covington, Intercollegiate One-Hundred-Yard Champion, was hobbling forward upon a pair of crutches. The yell died in Speed's throat, he felt himself grow deadly faint.

Into his heels he put what speed he had; and little as that was, it counted, pieced out with the head-work. Back in my college days I ran a two-mile race the greatest race of the day, the judges said and just at the tape lost two gold medals and the glory of a new intercollegiate record because I didn't use my head.

My heart is touched," he declared, boldly. Mrs. Keap smiled. "I believe the latter, but are you sure you can win?" "Abso-blooming-lutely." "I didn't know you were a sprinter." Speed shrugged his shoulders. "Have you had experience?" "Oceans of it!" Mrs. Keap mused for a moment. "Tell me," said she, finally, "at what intercollegiate game did you run last?" "I didn't run last; I ran first."
