...spirits of their players. We do not in any way admit that Yale has a finer spirit than Harvard. Their long line of victories and their fine system of coaching have simply given them a bit more unity of feeling than we have commonly had. Yet there is no reason why we cannot have the same thing here. We have good coachers, we have a good leader, we have good material, and if these three are to combine for a winning team they must have the best wishes and the Learty support of the other factor, student public spirit...
...money turned in to us by the Foxcroft Club, we have received less than two dollars. This is decidedly humiliating and would be very discouraging if we felt that the fund had been thoroughly advertised. By this time the matter must be pretty well known and there is no reason, now that the box has been provided in Memorial Hall, why we should not have a generous response from portions of the University better able if not more willing than the Foxcroft Club, to contribute money. A contribution of thirty or forty dollars from an institution of this size...

That association is now divided against itself to such an extent that it probably cannot survive another season and very soon we must look for another mode of regulating intercollegiate relations.

...Latin Play described in yesterday's CRIMSON will arouse a species of interest among the students which has been allowed to sleep for about thirteen years. In 1881 the Greek department produced a play in Sanders Theatre which was remarkably successful, both as an artistic performance and as a reason for renewed interest in the classics. Since then nothing of the kind has been attempted here till this year. Now the Latin department proposes to give the Phormio of Terence as the play nearest approaching our own theatrical methods. This performance will be only one of a series which have...
...race was very successful as an agent for the development of new rowing material. This year the 'varsity crew men, Captain Davis and others, will coach the crews in the hope of bringing out a good race and of ultimately interesting new men in crew matters. For this reason it is important that the freshmen, who are as yet unknown in actual crew work, should enter this race and make themselves known. A slight entrance fee is charged, no distinction being made between members and non-members of the Boat Club. Entries should be made at once at Thurston...
