...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. But the writer in The Weeks Sport expects...
Last night the dinner given in honor of the team that beat Yale and of the second eleven which proved such an important factor in that defeat, took place. At quarter before 8 o'clock the great dining room of the RevereHouse, decorated with Harvard banners, was filled with three hundred men waiting for the team to come in. The band played Fair Harvard as Neal Rantoul '92 escorted Captain Cumnock to his seat of honor on the right of the president of the dinner, Moses Williams, Jr., '91. The team followed and took seats at the head...

Judging from the enthusiasm of the college and the certainty of interesting and stirring exercises, the chief difficulty will be in getting a dining hall large enough for the crowd...
...excitement of the past few days we have overlooked editorially the defeat which the Harvard Shooting Club suffered at the hands of Yale. The representatives of Harvard were hardly in condition to undertake the match but thought that if all was favorable a creditable showing might be made. Unfortunately, nearly every day of practice went for nothing on account of windy and cold weather. The shooting of Harvard showed this lack of practice, and in this way only can we account for so signal a defeat...
