...given under the auspices of the University. The wish expresses nothing derogatory to our college advantages as they now are but simply asks for the extension of a privilege which we to some extent already enjoy. The country is possessed of many eminent and active men who could hardly feel it anything other than a pleasure to lecture here at the invitation of our faculty, and certainly their words would be both welcome and profitable to the students.

It seems almost needless for us to urge every man who possibly can, to go with the team; but we feel so positively that the success of the eleven in the contest with Princeton will depend largely on the support the college gives it, that we can not help saying an earnest word in hopes that it may influence those who are levitating whether to go or no. The team has been very unfortunate in losing valuable...
