...small and selfish thing for a man to prefer his own leisure to Harvard's prestige, dawddling away his time in Boston or loafing about the clubs, when his presence and example on the crew, the nine, or the track might put Harvard to the fore, and such a man should be condemned cordially; but instead of that one hears him commiserated for being compelled to keep in training four or five months in the year.

A circular containing the petition which is published on the first page, will...

...muscles called into play in foot-ball, and will be of especial value to men who intend to try for the eleven next year. The training the men go through, however, is valuable for its own sake as well as for developing men for the eleven, and furnishes, there-fore, a desirable course of exercise for men who are not doing other team work. The fact that a man knows nothing of football should be no barrier to his joining this class. On the contrary, Mr. Cumnock is eager to have anyone who would like to try for the team...
