...hardly creditable even for men out of practice ; yet two things were clearly demonstrated by the game. The first of these is that the new clubs lately organized in this vicinity are now in a condition to play a creditable game and, though they may be unable to defeat our team when it has begun regular work in the spring, games arranged with them in future will give our men much needed practice and enable them to enter the intercollegiate games much better prepared than they have ever been before. The practice games will fill a long felt need. Yale...

...Seniors of Harvard have no right in such a procession, if they bear their intended transparency. No gentleman has the right to say or do anything to the detriment of the man whose salt he is eating. The Senior Class is equally bound in honor not to attempt to defeat the object of the Republican procession; a thing which they will attempt if they thus proclaim their hostility to Mr. Blaine...

In spite of the unexpected defeat of yesterday we still think that our team is capable of good play. Many of the men have had but little experience on a University football team and can acquire steadiness...

...dislike to say anything in regard to the referee, but we feel sure that we speak for the majority when we say that his duties were hardly discharged as they should have been. However, that does not explain our defeat. Our opponents played much better than was expected and our team played much worse than we had been led to expect. We hope the members of the team will not feel discouraged at the result of their first important match, but will continue their practice with steady perseverance which will in time overcome their faults...
