Could the insulting, one-sided remarks of the Harvard HERALD concerning our foot-ball team be taken as representative in any degree of the sentiments of the college, they might deserve consideration; but, as it is, they are beneath notice.

Few, however, can agree to the appendix which says that "the Yale freshmen tried the same contemptible methods that their elders from the same college used in the 'Varsity game, but the Harvard freshmen soon convinced them that two could play at that game, and, when the 'slugging' in unfair tackling began, it was returned with interest." For although our eleven showed no symptoms of fright, and presented a strong...
