...believe in the danger of contamination which our worthy Board of Overseers so recently deplored. Personally the men who play upon these professional teams are, as a rule, respectable, honest men who simply take this means of earning their livelihood. They do not dare to play in an underhanded fashion even if they are inclined so to do, for fear of losing their positions. Our nine cannot suffer by contact with these men and there is no doubt but that they will greatly improve their playing by a few games with professionals. On the whole the college has cause...

There are comparatively few men in college who read the editorials-not because they are not worth reading, but because it is a "bore" to do so. Besides it is the fashion here at Harvard to mock and jeer and rail at the college papers. The Advocate must know that by experience. But we claim that those who do read our editorials are influenced by them, as we can prove by the communications which we receive daily...
