The "leading" colleges have taken this position, notwithstanding the fact that two years ago the medal was won by a contestant from a co educational college, and at last year's contest they made no mean representation We suppose that one of those "leading" colleges which is seriously contemplating the co-educational plan will give up its assumed position as a "lead ing" college whenever she does so. For several years a cry has been heralded through tho different col lege magazines for intercollegiate contests, showing the fellowship -and material benefit to be derived from such, yet those loudest in this cry have been moi-t active in thwart ing it by and defeating their object by an exhibition of such narrow ness as described above.
