...last two editorials touch the Springfield game and the freshman game. Harvard, although not victorious at Springfield, has had an excellent eleven; the men have all worked hard and faithfully, and deserve the gratitude of the college. The freshman elevens have of late years defeated Yale, and this fact must influence 'varsity teams very soon...
...whose honesty is even questioned. The second criticism is that it would have been much better to have waited until the Princeton match and victory were old and the undergraduates' blood had had a chance to cool. I have already said that such a course seems much the wiser. Although there may be unfairness to Princeton still the instinct of self-preservation is paramount.

We are sure to meet in the next few weeks a deal of criticism of our recent withdrawal, and however much we may feel...
...Berkeley Oval resulting in a victory for Wesleyan gives the University of Pennsylvania fifth place in the league. Each of the teams have had some of their best players laid up and it was expected that the contest would be closely fought throughout. During the first half, although Pennsylvania fought stubbornly for every inch of ground, Wesleyan rather forced the play and scored a touchdown from which a pretty goal was kicked. During this half, however, Pennsylvania worked the ball down the field and Wesleyan was compelled to touch it down for a safety. This left the score...
