...intercollegiate games in the future, it would be best for her this year to send a team to Mott Haven. Now that this conclusion has been reached it behooves as to do everything in our power to send a winning four to the games. Particularly is this desirable in view of Harvard's coming withdrawal from the Association. We must win at Mott Haven, and that this may be assured every stone must be turned. Our withdrawal is determined upon, but to retire from the field victorious will be more graceful than to retire defeated. Tug-of-war, then, must...
...argue, before 1888, that Yale was becoming a mere side show compared with Harvard, as it is to conclude the Harvard is becoming provincial on account of the recent growth of Yale? Either argument is false and trivial because it is based on insufficient data. Why not rather view the subject from the point of view of several decades, as the CRIMSON does, instead of trying to find ground for alarm in the figures for five, or more correctly, three years? If there is "versatility of misapprehension" anywhere, it is not confined to the CRIMSON...

Why, if we take a broad view of the history of the two colleges, these three years only appear like an exception to illustrate the rule...
...laughing stock of Yale and Princeton. The making of such regulations, would after a victory have been foolish, but after defeat they are more nearly disgraceful. He further says that the spirit of interference shown by the faculty is very detrimental to the welfare from an athletic point of view and is particularly unfortunate just at the present time, coming as it does when athletics at Harvard seem to have taken a new lease of life, and when such interest is manifested in them. The immediate result of these regulations, he says, will be to prevent Harvard from meeting Princeton...
