...college has already expressed its pride in its victorious crew, and will undoubtedly take occasion to still further express its delight in the performance in the near future. The victory practically gives Harvard the precedence over Yale in athletic sports for the year to come. So crushing a defeat can hardly be retrieved in less time, even by so great a college as that at New Haven. The crew that has won for Harvard the "amateur champion ship of America" will not soon be forgotten...
...York Herald says, editorially ; "The ease with which Harvard defeated the Columbia eight a few days ago-a crew that have demonstrated on other waters their excellence-and the overwhelming defeat which she has now administered to the Yale navy easily entitle her to the practical amateur championship of this country. * * A careful review of the race makes it clear that Harvard has at present a crew not alone the best in existence in American Amateur circles, but one that is superior to any she has had in years...
...eighth annual boat race between Yale and Harvard University eights, rowed at New London on June 28th, resulted in a crushing defeat for Yale, who received at the hands of the Harvard crew one of the worst beats on record, the crimson leading the blue at the finish by over three hundred yards.

In general athletics and foot-ball she has done more than her fair share of the work, while her freshman nine, although unable to defeat Yale, made a good showing. In scholarship she compares favorably with any class Harvard has sent forth, the average being a very high one. The college will join us in wishing to '83, as a fitting ending to a successful college course of four years, a pleasant class...
...they might try to get up a little enthu iasm and take a more sympathetic interest in the men who work so hard and so faithfully to gain victories for Harvard. Any man on the crew or nine will bear witness that croaking has brought the college many defeats and no victories. Men cannot be expected to play ball or row with any spirit when they have to look forward to slight praise if they win, and to unsparing and often ignorant criticism in case of defeat. We hope that the college in future will so frown upon this malicious...
