...season, for while Princeton's season closes shortly we shall not see the end before Thanksgiving, and it was difficult to bring the team into the proper condition so long before the decisive struggle with Yale. Whether victory or defeat be ours in the game Saturday we confidently trust that the encouragement of the college will be even more freely game. Every particle of support is needed if the eleven are to compare in this respect to Yale's team, for the typical Yale man thinks nothing that he can do for the eleven is too great...

As all the winners of last year's prizes have left college there is a particularly good opening for beginners, and we trust that a large number of men will take advantage of it. More men perhaps are kept out of sparring for fear of "making fools of themselves" than anything else. This feeling may be increased this year by the tendency to prize-fighting which was seen in the middle-weight sparring...
