...three games to win the championship. It may seem hopeless to talk of winning the championship, but at least Harvard should be spared the disgrace of being out ranked by Princeton. This has not happened for six years and should not be allowed to happen now. Every Harvard man should do all in his power to prevent the occurance of what would be the crowing stroke of calamity to our athletic interests. The 'varsity nine has shown at various and intermittent times that it can play winning ball. The college can rest assured that the nine will do its utmost...
...Shearman had at the games a pole which he had neglected to test beforehand, and when he came to use it he found that it was too heavy. He thought that Leavitt's pole would suit him better, and requested the loan of it.

It is disagreeable to have to characterize such actions even as inconsiderate...
...existing state of affairs, and that it only remained to investigate the matter and find out which form was best, and then to go ahead and help on the movement. One meeting will be held before the end of the year which will be addressed by some man prominent in the field, of which notice will be given in the CRIMSON, but next year the matter will be pushed to put the club on a firm basis, so that it will begin its good work...
