...been found that the objectionable features of the game can not be done away with, then it is time enough to think of prohibiting the game. Something more, however, than the bare assumption of the committee is needed to prove that suitable and sufficient changes cannot be made. Any action by the Committee or by the Faculty which shall prohibit intercollegiate foot ball, without allowing us the chance to remove the objectionable features of the game, will be an inexcusable act of injustice towards the students...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON :-I desire to enter a protest against the action of the representatives of Harvard at the informal foot ball convention at New York following the Yale-Princeton game, in moving and voting (if the New York papers report their action rightly) to award the championship to Yale.

We wish to say now that nothing could be further from the spirit in which this paper is conducted, than any such editorial action. One thing must, however, be remembered; we reserve the right to make such comments as we deem proper on any article which is admitted to our columns...
