...have forgotten a very important point-that even students need to be kept above a certain temperature if the interest is to be maintained. It has been all along a crying shame that the chapel has not been properly warmed on cold mornings and as a result of this neglect, there has been much distress of mind and body as well as some vigorous language. We trust that the authorities will soon come to perceive that compulsory chapel and chilled congregations are not necessarily connected and that until we are allowed to follow our own dictates in the former matter...
...when Williams made the safeties, our men missed many chances to score by slow and spiritless playing. In this point lies the secret of Yale's large scores, for her men, confident that rigid training will give them as much and probably more endurance than their opponents, do not neglect this advantage but continually force the fighting from the kick-off to the very close of the game...

Let every one that can possibly do so, sign their names at Bartlett's at once, and let nothing but the most pressing considerations deter any one from being present on Friday night at Young's to give the view a deserved compliment, and to make the dinner in every way a success...

With forty-one professors and an income of $225,000, we should be educating a thousand instead of two hundred." All of which seems merely to neglect the argument that it is in this very opportunity for the highest training not obtainable elsewhere that the pre-eminent usefulness of such an endowment as that of Johns Hopkins consists...
