...treatment received by our nine was not such as should be given a college team. The crowd cheered every error and "guyed" the Harvard players...
After the unjust criticisms of Yale's treatment of her visitors last Saturday which appeared in the Harvard press, the actions of the Harvard crowd Wednesday were indeed surprising. Never did a crowd try harder or use worse methods to rattle a team. If Harvard men wish to have any reputation for fairness and justness, let them "practice what they preach." - Yale News...

The Yale nine treated the Harvard team courteously. and it is to be regretted that as much cannot be said of the spectators. The umpiring was simply absurd. The man seemed wholly unfit for his position. Harvard will protest...
