...suppose. They did more than to merely amuse the men who made up the contesting elevens, and the score or so of their friends who strolled out to the field to witness the sport, applaud the good plays, and, perhaps, laugh at the many ludicrous incidents which are sure to occur in a scrub game. As a direct result of these impromptu games many men were led to go upon the field as candidates for our eleven of this fall, and many promising players have been found among their number...

...parade in their ranks, consequently, can Harvard, "in respect to itself, turn out with a party that takes such shady methods"-that tells a naughty lie, to speak boldly, "to secure our presence in its ranks?" Well, we hardly know.

...result of the tennis tournament at Hartford has been received by the college with great surprise. If there was one thing which Harvard seemed reasonably sure of winning, that one thing was the intercollegiate tennis tournament. To be defeated in that is disappointing, but doubly so when we realize that it is the old story over again, "defeated by Yale." To be sure our representatives had very hard luck.

...great change of opinion at Harvard, and would be made much of in the Democratic press. This of course would be satisfactory to the Cleveland men here, but they can hardly expect that it would be highly relished by Republican students, a large number of whom would, I am sure, refuse to join in any such demonstration...
