UP TO THE LEGION

"I'm not an advocate of turn about is fair play, but I can't see why several dozen Harvard boys should be so widely and sensationally denounced for an outrage which the 'valiant defenders of democracy' have been committing' with perfect liberty during the past 20 years.... Speaking with all possible impartiality, I can't fail to see in the melodramatic charges of legion men a certain psychological trait, commonly found in the 'bully' type. Here's my proof:

"Anyone who has ever lived in a city where the Legion convened will understand my reasoning. My home is in Cincinnati, and last summer the Legion hit town; it hit the liquor stores, and then hit anyone who objected to its practical jokes. Cars, pedestrians and bystanders were all subjected to the most violent abuses... Cincinnati is only one of many cities that have experienced the graciousness of their Legion guests."
