...action of Yale last Friday in refusing to concede anything to keep Dartmouth in the inter-collegiate base-ball league, seems hardly excusable. Harvard would have played one game in Hanover, while Princeton promised to play both championship games on neutral grounds, but both of these plans were defeated by Yale absolutely refusing to change the arrangement existing since '83, when Dartmouth entered the league.
