...Yale, although Mapes, of Columbia, is fast, and will press Berger at every hurdle. Page, of the U. of P., is, without doubt, the highest jumper in the college association, but if he refuses to enter, as is probable, Sherman, of Yale, will be a hard man to beat. Goodwin, Yale, '90, is another good man if his health will allow him to enter. She man also has a good chance to win a prize in the broad jump and pole-vault, although Robinson, Yale, '89, has an equal chance in the jump...
...whom we shall row. It will probably be out of the question to get a race with Yale or Harvard next summer. We must first show our quality with some crews that they feel that they can down, and if we beat them-and we must-then will Yale and Harvard be bound to answer a challenge from us. We shall undoubtedly challenge the University of Pennsylvania first. They are just beginning to row eights, sent out their first last year, and will be a worthy opponent.

It has therefore seemed advisable not to award championship cups, but to let it be understood that unless all the games are played no real chapship is to be awarded; yet '89 played a hard game with...
...among her alumni which enables them to listen with proud and beaming countenances to a speech as rowdies in character as that celebrated speech of Peters of the Bones, wherein, in strangely mixed metaphor, he referred to the Harvard man as "a kid-gloved lamb." If, in order to beat Yale it will be necessary to adopt her general sentiments and her standards of conduct, we never want to win again. But is it not possible to raise our standard in athletics without lowering our social ideals, for we do not want to meddle with the social conditions here...
