...spirit in the other colleges as shown by the way in which they joined with Harvard in the reform. We are rather at a loss to understand Yale's stand in regard to the tug-of-war, especially as she voted for its abolition last year, and as the sentiment of the college, judging from editorial expression in the Yale News not three weeks ago was until recently in favor of abolishing the event...

For a number of years Harvard has been consistent in her advocacy of this reform, and for some time the sentiment has been becoming general among the larger colleges against the tug-of-war. Last year Yale, Princeton and Amherst voted with Harvard to drop by event from the program, but the small colleges and Columbia defeated the motion. However, it was evident from last year's vote that the change...
