...keep alive a thorough-going spirit of manly enthusiasm among the students to act as it were hand in hand with our other advantages here. If, then, athletics are for the students rather than for the world, it seems but fair that the students should reap the benefits of the games. This certainly they can never do unless it is understood that the privileges of athletic contests are granted to them first of all.

We hope to see the necessary action soon taken, so that those who are now in college may reap the benefits, especially since by proper conditions this privilege can be protected from abuse...
