...professional teams, and consequently are placed at a great advantage over us, both in base-ball and other branches of athletics. Next year, with the proper training, we should be able to put in the field a nine that could bring honor and credit to Harvard, and we earnestly hope that the faculty will not prevent that nine from contending upon equal terms with those of our rival universities...
EDITORS HARVARD HERALD: I have just sent out cards to all those who have not yet paid their subscriptions to the University Crew, and I hope the response will be prompt and general.

Our only hope for the championship could be in Harvard, Columbia and Princeton, dividing first prizes pretty evenly, and thus making three or possibly four events tie the leaders. Even in that case the small number of our entries would doubtless hinder us from capturing enough second prizes to win. Therefore...
