EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON.-Of course it would be absurd to find fault with students for rejoicing in the gratifying success of our nine. That the brass band and many students went to meet the nine on their arrival in Boston is commendable. If the whole college had turned out en masse to welcome their return to Cambridge and had spent an hour in the wildest expression of joy, such action would not have exceeded the demands of college patriotism. For whatever of this took place I have nothing but approval. But I consider it outrageous that through the whole evening...

Only now let the nine keep on with their present steady game and not become over-confident, that fault which has proved fatal to Harvard's success so often in former years. The successive defeats of our most formidable opponents have inspired the whole college with every hope of final success, and in the name of the college, we heartily congratulate the nine on their wellearned victories over Yale and Amhurst...
Another drawback to the success of the school has been the illness of Prof. Packard, the director, who for a considerable time was too ill to direct the work of the students under his charge. In consideration of the services of Dr. Sterrett, a graduate of the school, who returned to Athens during the illness of the director, and assisted him in the work of the school, the committee made a grant of five hundred dollars, "as an expression of their gratitude for the services rendered by him to the school, and of their interest in, and high appreciation...
