...songs were brought to the CRIMSON by some of the best-known and influential men in the student body,- one of them an ex-captain of a 'varsity team. They had been written in the attempt to supply a need at the Yale game which has long been noticed and regretted by Harvard men. No CRIMSON editor had anything to do with the composition or printing of these songs; the paper simply extended its services by publishing in advance a portion of the songs, and having the completed list distributed with the CRIMSONS issued on the morning of November...
John Fiske began his remarks by speaking of the revelation which Francis Parkman's works bring to one who has been accustomed to giving American history little importance compared with ancient and mediaval history.

Today the first actual work will be done, and now at the very beginning of the season of crew practice we wish to bring to the attention of the students the need of a larger number of candidates and of unusual interest in the work. Last year took from our 'varsity boat six men and their places must be filled by men chosen from the candidates who do this work through the winter. There ought to be twice as many candidates as have...
Probably never in the history of Harvard athletics has there been greater need of a glorious victory than just at this time. The Yale game pulled down the spirit of the students to a point which it has seldom reached and had Pennsylvania beaten us it is hard to tell what might have happened. Within a week we have gone clear to the depths of misery and now a plucky set of men have brought us up again to something above our normal spirit and have saved us from a disaster which would have had its effect on the good...
