...would seem that in so large a University, and when there is so much at stake, that more men should be willing to enter. The committee, and still more the University itself, wants and must have the two best men that Harvard can offer to represent her in the intercollegiate match this coming Christmas. A great deal of interest is being shown at the three other universities, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton, over the coming match, and they will send strong teams into the contest.

...carry on its athletics successfully is to have firm financial basis; and that the only way to get this is to force members to join the Association. Whether or not this is the only way to get sufficient funds remains to be seen; but the one principle at stake-which, in this instance, the H. A.
