...college paper will contrast favorably in its tone with the ordinary political newspapers; and to point out what sort of journalists Harvard students make we need only point to such papers as the Boston Advertiser and The Nation, whose staffs are largely composed of Harvard men. It is the constant effort in college journals to show in their columns "fairness, and honesty, and courtesy, and calmness, and culture," and we think that they may well be imitated in this respect by many of the publications of their seniors...
...make no statements at random," it says; "proofs are in our possession. Yale wins her games by systematic preconcerted evasions of the rules of play. Yaleism is this-an underhanded and constant evasion of the rules. This, kept up for an hour and a half, told on the matches with Harvard and Princeton, and won for our New Haven brothers the championship.

The points of 'scrimmaging,' of 'passing' and of running in with the ball, which are now features of the American college game, need not be interfered with, as they necessarily involve strategic play...
...certain that they convinced the college of one thing, namely, that whatever support and encouragement their friends have given them was not misplaced. Two or three years ago the interest in foot-ball was very low indeed, and therefore the eleven labored under great disadvantages. Last year, however, by constant and well directed practice, the university team made a very good showing and awakened the interest in foot-ball again. Such was the state of affairs at the beginning of the present season. The college as a whole was willing and anxious to support its representatives in every...
