...cannot too strongly urge everyone to encourage the foot-ball men by numbers and enthusiasm at the afternoon practice on Jarvis. We think that every man who takes any interest in the welfare of the eleven, ought to show his appreciation of the hard work that is being done by attending the practising as well as the games of the team as often as possible. But while this is in every way desirable men must be more careful about walking around, not across the new ground on Holmes. The ground has been planted with grass seed, part of which...

...direct bearing upon the success of all the meetings of the association. It would benefit the H. A. A. in somewhat the same manner, although in a modified degree, as the class races benefit the boat club as the university crew.

A "University City" is a delightfully elastic phrase, and might by this process be made the cloak of reproach for a multitude of sins. Nevertheless it would be hard to extend the reproach for such narrowness to the university itself.
