I. has gone home with colors trailing in the dust, whilst the V. P. I., with jubilant shouts and blowing of trumpets, carries back with her the laurel wreath of victory and a score of 24 to 0 in her favor. Let no one think from this that such a score was easily made. For sixty minutes the contest was waged, a battle royal, in which brain was pitted ag...
