With the best wishes for your coming celebration, and hoping that Dr. McCosh will do Princeton honor in presenting the compliment of a younger sister to "Fair Harvard...
...they get from being on the team? The only reason for there being a freshman eleven at all is that it may try to beat the Yale freshmen, and may development for the University. Now '90 is doing neither of these things. They began with a slhurge, did fairly well for a freshman team, and at once thought they played rather better than the university did.

Remington made the fourth touchdown...

The team play is superb, the blocking and passing excellent, though the catching strangely uncertain; the running is fair; the tackling is too high and consequently appears weak. On the whole Yale will have to do better than yesterday to beat Princeton, but no doubt will improve vastly with the coming month's play...
