Only by laying aside all personal prejudices and all personal ambitions, by selecting the best men available, from whatever section of the class, by concerted and harmonious action, can the result be satisfactory to the class and the College public generally. As the Crimson has heretofore remarked, "Class Day is not Society Day."

Aside from the fact that we ourselves may be able to dispute that assertion next July, we would remind our friends in New Haven...
...practice which the members certainly need before they can meet older organizations. The club must remember that it represents the College, and that, should they suffer any disgraceful defeat, it would to a certain extent affect the reputation for athletic excellence which the College possesses. With this word of caution, we wish the Cricket Club a long and successful career...
