_ I find that, as President McConaughy points

requirements, and I stand corrected. . . . When
some of my college friends made the Rhodes
Scholarship grade, they were then usually picked

now, that idea has become badly warped. There}

quotation” in an effort to have Dr. Angell say

something he did™ not intend to say.) eae :
