...part of the University nine last year, we must confess that this move of Yale '86 seems in perfect accordance with Yale's past reputation. The only thing left for Yale to do is to announce the game in next year's Banner as forfeited to Yale by a score of 9 to 0, as has been done in similar cases. Let us hope, however, that Yale will consent to some arrangement by which the decisive game of the series may be played off at a time and place satisfactory to both parties...

Going down DeWolf Street, where it makes a turn to the left, the broad crimson banner of the boat-club caught my sight. I thought of the time, about a year ago, when, at its first unfurling, one of Harvard's dashing old oars predicted that it would be the harbinger of victory; and, in spite of my apathy, I could not help feeling proud that the prediction had come to pass. The bright folds were now stretched by the wind, and showed the dear old word to which, when we are out of Cambridge, we all so fondly cling...
