...soon as the last game was played in the fall, the players were allowed to conduct themselves as they pleased until the next season came round. The result was that they had to spend most of the time before the first game in trying to worry themselves back into decent physical condition. With some it was a dismal failure, and injuries, contracted through their neglect, at the outset almost destroyed their usefulness in the important games that followed. A light but steady practice in the gymnasium during the winter, and some regular out-door training in the spring and summer...

...more respect than we have for those who support themselves through college in a legitimate way. The member of '79 who supported himself for two years by selling books was thoroughly respected by all who knew him, and any slur cast upon him would have been resented by every decent man. For Mr. Moses King, however, we have no respect, and we feel sure that public opinion is with us. In the name of the students of Harvard College we repudiate him and his Register...
