...Academy the case was still worse. The freshmen who were on the field stood about in an utterly listless and uninterested manner. Their conduct was in marked contrast to that of the Worcester men, who were exceedingly demonstrative in their loyalty to their team. Cheering and applause is a sort of moral support which athletic teams of all sorts must have if they are to do their best work. This is especially true in foot ball; the players must be kept up to a high pitch...

...some of the members of one of these parties resorted to dishonest means to accomplish their purpose. Ample evidence of this has been presented to the CRIMSON in the shape of nine ballots all prepared by the same man for the straight ticket which was elected. If this sort of work was practiced by any number of men, and there is substantial reason to believe that it was, probably enough illegal votes were cast to affect materially the result. It is but fair that the honest men on both sides should know of this. No class in Harvard college...
