Athletics and Modern Education
The trend of modern education is indicated in a statement of a local daily to the effect that a certain young man, "a recent graduate of the Oakland High School, will enter the Northwestern University of Chicago. —— is an all-round athlete and made an enviable record as a hammer thrower and hurdler, while a member of the Academic Athletic League. An article published in the Chicago Times-Herald of December 28, gave the young man a complimentary notice. It says the college expects to secure in him one of the best athletes in the country for its track team."
