Champions

The Associated Press last week took upon itself the task of tabulating collegiate champions in all branches of sport for 1925. Over and over in its list appear Yale and Navy, so that Yale is given credit for seven championships, the Navy for six--somewhat arbitrarily, sportsmen thought, for most championships are purely regional, and who shall say that Dartmouth has a better football eleven than Washington, or that the Navy rifle shooters are more accurate than those of Wisconsin? The Associated Press definitely overlooked many Middle and Far Western performances in compiling the following table:
