The Higher Education

(Harvard's prestige in football is a leading factor. The best players in the leading preparatory schools prefer to study at Cambridge, where they can earn fame on the gridiron. They do not care to be identified with Yale and Princeton.--JOE VILA in the Evening Sun.) "Father," began the growing youth, "Your pleading finds me deaf; Although I know you speak the truth About the course at Shef. But think you that I have no pride, To follow such a trail? I cannot be identified With Princeton or with Yale." "Father," began another lad, Emerging from his prep; "I know you are a Princeton grad, But the coaches have no pep. But though the Princeton profs provide Fine courses to inhale; I cannot be identified With Princeton or with Yale." "I know," he said, "that Learning helps A lot of growing chaps; That Yale has William Lyon Phelps, And Princeton Edward Capps. But while, within the Football Guide, The Haughton hosts prevail, I cannot be identified With Princeton or with Yale."
