...difficult to compare the work of the two nines since the first game as they have not played the same teams. The records seem to show that Princeton is the stronger. Princeton was beaten seven to three by Lafayette, and defeated the strong Cornell and Brown teams by the scores of 11 to 6, and 4 to 1, respectively. Before Princeton played Harvard, the latter was defeated by Lafayette 8 to 1, and by Cornell 8 to 5; since then by U. of P. by the score of 3 to 2. The only victories in fact have been over rather...

The statement is commonly made in the form-"It is harder to get into Harvard College than into Yale, but once admitted, it is easier to stay there." The statistics printed below would seem to show that it is, putting it as mildly as possible, no easier to stay in Harvard...
