...hearty support which the undergraduate body have in past years given their football teams it is only fair that the sport should be considered partly theirs as well as the players, and their wishes taken into account. They wish to have a winning team, and are helping to effect this. However, they would do well to consider what is best for the teams which they help turn out, and I think that they should consider thoroughly the points brought out in the communication printed in the CRIMSON of November...
Dissatisfaction, however evident, will be of no avail unless its effect appears in the plans for another season.

The students listed lose forever the privilege of applying for seats at Harvard-Yale contests...
...Boston. Just what advantage such an excursion would have it is difficult to see. We have no particular interest in displaying our feelings before the people of Boston--indeed they will learn of them far more generally through the newspaper accounts. Enthusiasm is of most value for its effect upon the players and upon the undergraduates themselves...
