...very much to be hoped that there may never be a repetition of the unfortunate misunderstanding which prevented the playing of the annual Harvard-Yale football game last fall. With a view to this, representatives of the two colleges have, during the past week, endeavored to come to some agreement in regard to the place where the game shall be played. It is gratifying to note that there is every reason to hope that a satisfactory arrangement will be concluded. The arrangement will be for a permanent meeting place. This is very desirable as it will do away with...
...communication appeared in the CRIMSON yesterday attacking the man agreement of the freshman crew. If there had not been a similar attack in your editorial column.

It was decided to have the accounts audited semi-annually instead of monthly. The surplus of the football association was raised from $400 to $1500, and the lacrosse association was admitted to have its accounts audited by the committee...
DEAR SIR.- We received, March 15, your letter submitting the following dates: Saturday, May 18, at New Haven; Saturday, May 25, at Cambridge. An agreement relating to Freshman baseball games-according to a letter from Harvard-'90-provides that '92 play first at Cambridge.

We submitted June 1 at New Haven, believing it would be most practical for Yale, It seems but just that each...
