...something worthy of the 'Varsity nine. It will be a reserve force, to be called upon in time of emergency, having as its ruling idea the perfecting of promising candidates. Such an organization the present management of our nine proposes to form. This plan has been tried before and failed, owing to the lack of co-operation on the part of those candidates who were disappointed in their endeavors for the regular team. It will fail again if left to itself. The college must show an interest in its welfare if the plan is to be successful. Daily practice, games...

...will unshackle our nine from its present disadvantages, so that it may meet Yale and Princeton on an equal footing. We must begin at once. The faculty will, no doubt, refuse. In that case we must persevere. Let a second and a third petition follow if necessary. If these fail, appeal to the graduates. There is no reason why, by an aroused public sentiment, together with the assistance of the graduates and those members of the faculty who favor the change, we should not get what we asked. One thing is certain-we must not longer be idle. Cannot...
