...would thus appear that the Yale News heartily approves of the agreement made four months ago; but finds fault merely with the manner in which it was made - not with the arrangement itself, as some of the New York newspapers yesterday intimated. The latter construction would of course be equivalent to an accusation of bad faith against Yale...

...Alwin Schroeder, first 'celloist of the Orchestra. The selections by the Orchestra were given with more than usual accuracy and precision, while the combination of technical skill and feeling which the soloist displayed, made his work exceedingly artistic. Whether one attempts to criticise favorably or to find fault with such a performance he stands on equally unsatisfactory ground, for to criticise favorably is but to imitate and to find fault with, is folly...

...team showed that they have benefited by the coaching of the last week. The eleven were not so heavy as their opponents, yet, by their superior team work they scored more than twice as much. The line blocked off well, and tackled well, and no one could find fault with them if they had only broken through better, especially in the center and at the right end. But they do not break through well enough yet, and they must improve more than a little in this particular if they expect to do anything with the Yale freshmen and those nine...
