...Harvard. The facts of the case last year were these; Yale, '87, won the first game of the series at New Haven. The second game, played here, resulted in a victory for Harvard '87, by the score of 5 to 1. Each team having won a game, the only thing to do was to play off the tie by a third game at some neutral place. This was done in eighty-six's freshman year.

EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON.- As all who saw the class races must have observed, three tug-boats, the referee's boat and two others, passed ahead of '86 and '88 some distance from the finish. The inevitable result was that those two crews were very considerably impeded. Such a thing ought never to have been allowed. An interference of that sort might determine the order of the two last crews, which is not a matter of entire indifference. In this case it apparently did not have that effect, but such an interference must always have the effect of making it still...
