How Big is the "Big Three"?

The existence of "powerful" cliques controlling the future of intercollegiate athletics is at once the greatest stumbling block to success and the greatest menace to the future of the whole system. The easily-arrived-at conclusion that a given group contains within its restricted confines all the meat and marrow seems to constitute the raison d'etre and the strength of the "Big Three."

Harvard, Yale and Princeton are perhaps just a little behind the times in setting up their hierarchy of intercollegiate sport. With the multiplicity of colleges sending teams out into intercollegiate competition, the existence of a sport aristocracy is an anomaly and an anachronism. Cornell Sun.
