In a country as new as Amercia it takes but a short time for a custom to arise, for a tradition to flourish. Already the football game between the teams from Hanover and Cambridge has become a custom, a tradition. Nor is it in any sense other than an excellent one. For two New England undergraduate bodies to mingle once a year can do neither harm. And the game itself has all the attributes of the best in college football.
