Resolved, That the directors, while they have confidence in the steward's integrity, nevertheless, in this particular instance, censure his carelessness and unbusinesslike conduct, deeming it out of keeping with the responsible position which he holds...
...chance to adopt, as the Record chooses to insinuate, but on the contrary, the papers represent, and that, too, most adequately the popular opinion of the college. The editorial goes on to state: "The result was a bitter disappointment, of course," alluding to Harvard, "but does that justify the conduct of their men among the spectators, hissing every fine play made by the Yale team?" We owe thanks to the Record for furnishing us with this truly Yaleistic idea of "fine playing."

The last number of the Crimson plainly, but unwittingly, we hope, violates this tradition, and induges in an unseemly slur upon the reputation for gentleman-liness of the visitors from Yale to our recent 'Varsity game. The conduct of the Yale team, it cannot be denied, was in general ungentlemanly and altogether reprehensible. The conduct of the Yale papers since the game has been equally bad or even worse. But not all this, we think, affords our contemporary any justification for the brutal fashion in which it turns upon...
