...have prohibited the nine from playing games with professionals. The general impression is that the trustees are not the men who can best judge of such a matter and that their interference is uncalled for. There are no amateur nines in this vicinity and Princeton will have to depend for practice upon a consolidated nine, if we are to be prohibited from importing professional teams...

Should the misfortune of the few heap the greatest misfortune upon the many? Perhaps, however, this is meant as a grand reform; and the defeat of the nine, the crew, or the eleven at the hands of Yale, will deprive them of time-honored privileges...
