EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: - Do the men here in college realize their priveleges in having distinguished clergymen at Appleton Chapel morning after morning to conduct prayers? Very few realize, perhaps, the significance of the presence during the present week of Dr. Brooks, who is just on the eve of sailing for Europe. It is not small thing for as busy a man as he to give half of every day to Harvard College, where so many men are ignorant of the fact that he is here among us and taking, as a Harvard man himself, a deep and daily interest...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: - Since the freshman game with Yale on Wednesday. I have heard many adverse criticisms on the action of the freshman class and the conduct of the nine. Although I heartily coinside with your correspondents of yesterday and the day before in condemning the action of the nine's supporters, still I see no reason why the members or any member of the nine itself should be run drown, simply because they did not succeed in defeating their opponents. I suppose it is natural for a nine to be condemned because it has suffered reverses...

EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: - I wish to say a few words about the treatment accorded the Yale freshmen nine yesterday afternoon by the portion of the audience composed of Harvard undergraduates, In a recent issue you took occasion to criticise the unseemly conduct of the spectators at the Yale-Harvard game in New Haven; nothing, it seems to me, could have been much more unseemly than the "muckerish" conduct of the men on Holmes Field yesterday. During a six years residence in Cambridge I have never seen its equal for ungentlemanliness, and hope never to again. As long as possible...
...intercollegiate contest, Harvard has been reduced to the level which has always been the object of scorn and contempt heretofore, and deserves to remain so. It is much to be regretted that, besides those who supported the nine, there were men on the team itself, whose conduct eminently ill-fitted the occasion. The fresh man nine has one thing to learn before it undertakes to represent Harvard again on the ball field, and that is to play ball like gentlemen. The freshman class before it again cheers the errors of its opponents should learn that such conduct has always been...
