...contests of the past few weeks. If it has been merely to see two nines play ball, well and good, or rather well and bad, they might have satisfied their desire just as completely on the South End Grounds. If with any intention of rendering their team encouragement and support, their failure has been little less than ludicrous. A stranger in Cambridge attending one of the minor games, would have received the impression that he had been cast into a crowd of sporting critics rather than an assemblage of college men out to see their representative team...
...defeated U. of P. Monday by a score of 16-0, no comparison can be made between this score and the 'Varsity's close victory on Saturday by a score of 2 to 1 as in the Brown game Pennsylvania's pitchers were in poor condition, and received the support of a thoroughly demoralized infield...

It seems a great pity, that out of a class as large as 1901, not enough money can be collected to support the crew, and that only forty out of six hundred and fifty have paid any attention to the postals. Every man ought to take pride enough in his class to see that the money necessary to send the crew to New London is raised. This money can never be collected...
