...weak men whose places should be filled before the game next Saturday. With these changes and with the same careful coaching that aided the playing and base running of the team in the recent game, we think that there is a good chance for success at Yale. We must warn the captain of the nine, however, not to let the coaching degenerate into a system of tactics scarcely worthy of Harvard...
...declared its intention of caricaturing members of the University whenever a fitting opportunity presents itself. Now that kind of thing was tried when the Lampoon was first started, and the consequences were disastrous. College opinion objected, and with justice, to this degraded form of wit; and we beg to warn the Lampoon that it is more than probable that college opinion will object again.

Gentle reader, do not understand that we would discourage cleanliness, far from it. We simply wish to warn these bath-room monopolists of the wrath to come, if they persist in their greedy ways. However, we have not the heart to deprive them altogether of a pleasure apparently so much sought by them. We would suggest that they petition for the use of the tubs all night; and then they may sit and soak in peace, undisturbed by the maledictions of the men waiting without...
