...second game of the season between the Bostons and the Harvards was played on the Union grounds on Saturday, 26th ult. After the weak display which the "University" had made the previous Saturday, an easy victory was anticipated for the Bostons.

We hope that the paragraph will not have so bad an influence upon the size of '77 at Yale, as we apprehend...
