...enough importance to warrant the justification of the act. Paths have been made through the yard in every direction, and to tramp over the young grass and sod is a deliberate attempt to destroy the general good looks of the yard. For those men who have been seen treading down the new sod, we think that it is more the result of careless negligence than any delight they take in spoiling the grass. We trust a little more care in this respect will be shown in the future...

Ninety-one is one of the most progressive classes that ever entered here. They are small in numbers, but oh, my! They had a beautiful foot-ball team. They have had one of the best freshman nines seen in college for many a long day, and if their crew continues to do as well as heretofore the Harvard-Columbia race will be a walk over for them.- Columbia Spectator...

...often been the stumbling-block of Harvard teams. We mean over-confidence. Yale on her own ground is a dangerous opponent, and such an opponent we shall have to contend against next Saturday. Harvard is now at the head of the intercollegiate league and it remains to be seen whether she can continue to hold her own. Only the most careful attention to work can enable her to do so; not the slightest means of improvement consistent with the restrictions of the faculty should be omitted. We have little fear on this score, but a word of warning is never...
