...Harvard's first interest, and it is not snobbish either, is in all branches of athletics to defeat Yale. This is certain to become still more the fact as time goes on and college athletics increase to such an extent that it will be impossible to arrange leagues large enough to settle definitely the "championship,"- a worthless tide at the best. It is not likely that Harvard will ever figure in intercoll grate leagues again; there seems to be a general sentiment again it among both students and the Faculty.

...thinking over the recent defeat of the Shooting Club by Yale we find that the chances for a victory for Harvard at the next meeting are great, if certain things are straightened out which are not as they ought to be at present. We find that the Harvard score was greater than our score last fall when we won, a fact which tends to show that our representatives have only met more skillful opponents this year than before.
