...cannot agree with Mr. Balch in this matter, although we are as earnest as he is to advance the financial interests of the crew, for we have declared it our belief that mismanagement, if not extravagance. has been the rule for some time past.

The difficulty has been that one resource failed after another so unexpectedly, and so often, that Princeton had to play her big matches before her eleven was ready.
