...fair offer, we can only conjecture. If it is because she wishes to humiliate Harvard she has wasted her discourtesy. If it is because she does not need the financial aid which an exhibition game would give her, she is better off than we has reason to think...

...story that has been printed in New York that Yale has challenged the Cambridge, England, crew to an eight-oared race this coming summer, is denied by the management of the Yale crew.
