...faculty, in refusing to grant the petition of the Glee and Banjo clubs to be allowed to make a Christmas trip, is to be regretted. The work of the clubs last year was extremely creditable. From every point of view the trip was successful, and it is difficult to see how anything but good resulted. The concerts were, in reality. Harvard reunions, giving the graduates in the distant states chances which no other occasions would afford-to renew their love and loyalty for the college by the reawakening of old memories and by mingling with the undergraduates of today...

...manly and plucky game they played this year. We have met this evening, he said, not to celebrate an eleven that has played a victorious game, but one that has played a manly game and one that every man may be proud of.

From the work of the eleven this year...

...timely solution of the foot ball difficulty. The proposition made is briefly as follows: That Yale shall withdraw from the foot ball league, at the same time make a proposition to Princeton that she shall withdraw, with the added stipulation that if Princeton does not comply Yale will see no further obstacle to the formation of a dual league with Harvard.

There are two possible objections, however, to Harvard's acceptance...

...their lives felt in as wide a circle as possible. Moreover, he said that one of the ways to do this was by attending to the religious services which the college has instituted. He expressed admiration for the work which the Harvard system was accomplishing, but sincerely hoped to see, in time, a deep religious spirit pervade the whole college as well as the few who are now so interested. Professor Peabody was unable to be present but expressed his hearty interest by letter...
