EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - Within a day or two I have heard students, otherwise intelligent, speak of the recent action about the college yard as an attempt to make students do "police duty," and as an "outrageous" procedure on the part of the faculty. Were such a strange misapprehension wide spread, that might easily account for the lack of interest in the late election of a yard committee.

...Harvard graduate. The statement that the members of the Harvard team admitted that Yale had won the event has absolutely no foundation, and is evidently a foolish, partisan exaggeration.

The faculty of late years have shown a spirit of liberal action in their treatment of the students, and the students have responded in a manly spirit. But on Tuesday a severe blow was dealt to progress at Harvard. The undergraduates have been given one more privilege, and this time they have been found wanting. Hereafter the faculty we fear will remember...
