Princeton can at last fairly claim a hard won championship in foot-ball. While the contest this year has hardly excited at Harvard the interest taken in it during past years deeper interest in the individual work of the players has never, perhaps, been shown. The playing of Yale as a team cannot be classed as worthy of its usual high commendation, but, notwithstanding the evident lack of first-class material, there was still exhibited much of the old time determination to win. But fortune has, for this time at least, decided against the blue. We recognize the pluck shown...
...library. We will not claim that we have here a right to use the rather sweeping term, "Scylla and Charybdis," but that does not alter the fact that a wet day causes this particular piece of walk to resemble closely the famous bog in which the victim sank deeper the more he struggled. If the college could furnish to the passer bathing suits, or even a raft, the trouble would be obviated, but as it is we can only cry to the Lares of our grandmother as we cross the seething flood.

This passivity of public opinion here is the great obstacle to investing our students with power, and one of the most damaging things to the college in the eyes of the outer world. But any tone can be changed by the cumulative energy of individuals working...
...affected. The captains, however, can avoid this danger by compelling their men to wear more clothing, especially around the neck, arms and legs. 2d. Instead of an increase in breathing power, the lungs are apt to be temporarily, if not permanently injured. Running, compels not only faster, but also deeper breathing; the inhaled air finds its way to the innermost and extremely delicate tissues of the lungs. These tissues, not used during the ordinary process of breathing, are lunfit for contact with very coldlair...
