DURING the past two years indifference in regard to our athletic welfare has been increasing in the College, and the last two Freshman classes have been unusually negligent in paying their quota towards the support of our sports. It is well known that many men of moderate means contribute liberally, whereas others, who are far better able, refuse to contribute at all. Among the latter are the men who shout loudest over Harvard's victories. If these men refuse from a total lack of all class or college feeling, they deserve the most sincere pity; but if they refuse from...
...Bursar whether the person is an instructor or not, so long as he occupies a room in one of the college buildings. It is a trifle suggestive that he does not interfere with these gentlemen.

Thus, it is a matter much to be regretted, that some of the unsuccessful candidates have ceased active training. It is to be hoped that these men, inasmuch as the team is by no means definitely decided upon, will change their minds and begin play again. And even if they see no hope for themselves, it does not seem too much to ask that they should continue, in order to give the team the practice they...
