...future years that confidence to our Crew, Nine, and Eleven which only the presence of old athletes can impart. If '83 follows our advice about the election of class captains, and fit captains are backed by many hard trainers, the class will undoubtedly not only make a better record in her Freshman contests than '80 or '82, but will also reinforce the University teams. In studies, also, '83 must do steady work, in order to atone for the general lack of energy in '82, and thus obtain the freedom from restrictions which the Faculty is willing to grant...
...Crew and the Nine have added two more to the long list of Harvard's victories. At New London the former gave a pretty exhibition of their stroke, in a so-called race with Yale; at Providence the latter played and won one of the most creditable contests on record.

The fact is that the time required for any athletic sport is no more than every student should give to physical exercise; and such time is given by a small proportion of the men in this College. Any one who compares the record of our spring sports with that of the recent sports in England, will not fear that we suffer from too much attention to athletics. It is true that the few who do devote time to athletic exercises are sometimes injured by them, but this very fact shows the great need...
