...undergraduate team, like itself, would very likely have won. It may, however, well be doubted whether Harvard beaten has not a more honorable record than Princeton victorious.

It is her duty to continue that endeavor. If possible, indeed, she should protest Princeton's doubtful players again, not of course to cancel their work in Saturday's game, but to hinder them from playing during the remainder of the season.
