...only by the zeal in this behoof of undergraduates and sub freshmen, but by the enthusiasm of graduates and the intense interest which the public take in the affairs. Take the recent game between the two leading foot-ball teams. The New York papers say that the polo grounds never held so many or so wildly enthusiastic spectators; the return of the victors through the avenue on a coach called out the flutter of banners and choruses of cheers from the windows and balconies and pavements, and the newspaper press sent out a half dozen extras to announce the result...

...those of Yale and Harvard, but they are beaten simply by the limitations of their numbers, and their field, and the absence of large support. They have accomplished all they hoped to in defeating Pennsylvania, and their leaders are already talking of withdrawing from a league where they can never win first place.

Far be it from me to say that she does not deserve it; the right or wrong of the matter will never be decided. Still there are many of us who have yet to be convinced that the team which represented Harvard on the New York Polo Grounds last Thursday is inferior to Yale's eleven.
