...half of the game was not foot-ball, but simply twenty-two men skating about on Jersey mud in the darkness. And yet on the other hand Yale made a larger score throughout the fall than Princeton, and has beaten her opponents each time more easily. It therefore seems somewhat unfair to make absolutely no distinction between the two, and we think the convention in its two resolutions has perhaps done the best thing it could. Yale certainly has not won the championship of 1886 and yet she has played a better game of foot-ball than any other college...

The trumpet-call in the distance would have been more effective had the instrument been tuned to the same pitch taken by the orchestra. The same unsteadiness was also noticeable in the second number. This defect, it is true, prevails in most of the very good orchestras, but seldom to such a degree as in the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Notwithstanding the lack of precision of some of the performers, the second number was well given and deserved more...
