...last Harper's Weekly speaking of the matter says: "Yale can show no good reason for refusing to listen to Harvard's sportsmanlike proposition for a game in case of a tie. It is disappointing to Yale's friends to note a repetition of last year's insistence, against all precedent, of a game on neutral ground being played first." This too is the opinion of every fair minded person who is capable of judging a question impartially. If Yale's plan had been a reasonable one, arbitration would have given her all that she now claims...
...thing said in a CRIMSON editorial merits particular attention, - it is so particularly reprehensible. The writer of that editorial said: 'The best policy seems to be to take what we can get,' and he goes on to show the foxiness of accepting the gift of the Corporation on their terms and later perverting its use according to the lights of our own fancy.

It is reasonable to believe that there are many others who would show a spirit equally ready and generous if once we should make known our wants. The idea of entering upon a scheme which to many must appear an advertisement, whether it is or not, is not one which commends itself...
...entertainment to be given by the Deutscher Verein deserves to be well supported by members of the University, particularly by those who show an interest in the study of German. The proceeds will go for the benefit of the German library. Its present stock is utterly inadequate to fulfil the demands made upon it. When one realizes that nearly nine hundred men are registered in the different German courses of the University and that a good portion of these have frequent recourse to this department library, he can appreciate better the spirit which prompts the Verein to offer...
