...notorious fact that the editorial boards of our college papers too often include men who seem to have been elected for their "ton" and social position only. "Ornamental editors" are by no means an anomaly, and we doubt, if the facts, in this instance, at least, can ever be successfully disproved, even by the editors of the Crimson...

...past shows that the college at large is quite sure of beating Harvard. Our team has been working steadily and quietly, and in the Princeton game last Saturday showed wonderful strength. If they play as well tomorrow we are sure the college can feel proud of its team, what ever may be the issue of the contest. Then let every Harvard man be on the field Saturday, to encourage and support the team in every way he can. If the hoped for success crown their efforts, it will be a day to be looked back upon with pleasure...
