No Headline

On another page we print a communication from a graduate who sees fit to criticise the ground taken by our correspondent who, in one of our issues of last week, took occasion to find fault with the methods pursued by some of the reporters of the Boston dailies in their accounts of recent accidents at Harvard. We think that this letter requires no comment, other than the remarks that the reports published in the Boston press were dressed in most glaring colors and had but a thin thread of truth running through them. We must again make a distinction between the legitimate gathering of news, and the sensational writing which too often is made to appear as the account of actual occurrences.
