...else there would hardly have been this unexpected turn of affairs. The credit of it all must be given to one or two prominent alumni of each university. To them we feel grateful for the interest they have taken, and for the successful conclusion of their efforts. We think that Harvard's position was thoroughly sportsmanlike and reasonable, and Yale, whether led by graduates or undergraduates has shown at last a fair spirit in the matter. She deserves particular credit since it is hard to recede from a position which has been strongly taken and persistently held. However...
...Class Lives blanks. Delay in attending to this simply imposes more work upon the Secretary. He must have the "Life" of every member of the class, as an incomplete record is hardly better than no record at all. The collection of the "Lives" is not, as many seem to think, a mere matter of form. for the statistics, etc., compiled from them and embodied in the Secretary's reports are very interesting and useful; and it is imperative that the whole class should be represented.

It is a poor and unsportsmanlike feeling which will prompt one to shun an even battle and we think that Yale has distinctly lowered her reputation for grit and manly bearing in athletics by the policy she has adopted...
...scale. Consequently we have had for some years the unsatisfactory custom of only two freshmen games with Yale, whether the series has resulted in a tie or not. This is likely to be taken as a precedent to justify the refusal of the freshman manager's request, but we think it would hardly be a just one. The games with Princeton are not a permanent arrangement; they are simply a temporary means of keeping up an interest in freshman baseball in both colleges, until Yale has passed from under the ban placed upon her by her faculty...
