...meeting of the representatives of Bowdoin, Cornell, Princeton, University of Pennsylvania and Wesleyan is to be held in the Hoffman House in New York, on Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 28, 1882, for the purpose of reviving the Inter-Collegiate Regatta Association...

We have merely set before your readers the inside workings of the Yale game as we saw them last Thanksgiving; the suspicions raised then...
