...went wrong with the Princeton nine, and it is also evident that the fault, if it was a real fault not the mere result of an off day, has since been corrected. Harvard will have no such easy victory on Decoration Day as many have been sanguine enough to expect. The warning of overconfidence cannot be too often hammered into Harvard men. Princeton has been doing strong up-hill work of late, and may be relied upon to play such a game on Monday as Harvard will find hard to beat...

Wright of Yale will of course take first in the half mile run, while Harvard's hopes lie in Corbin for second and Batchelder for third, possibly Lakin. These two events ought to give...
