New York, Oct. 10—An anonymous mischief-maker just now sent me an enormous volume mysteriously called Nutmeg. It turns out to be the yearbook of the graduating class of the University of Connecticut at Storrs. I am glad to have seen it, though so help me if I were a graduating student at the University of Connecticut, I would bury it deep in an unknown grave, hoping forever to destroy my link with this volume of mindlessness and emotional illiteracy.
Who—for instance-—were the speakers who went to UConn during the year? Well, the most conservative was Whitney Young, the affable leader of the National Urban League. On the American spectrum, Mr. Young would weigh in as a liberal Democrat. At UConn, he must have been invited to deliver the Mark Hanna Oration.
