...prominently into the field. We should without doubt have to devote ourselves to Columbia until we downed her. Then would we be ready for the blue and crimson. And that time depends as much upon you as upon the crew. Training will be very half-hearted if the men think the students do not take sufficient interest in their success to pay their way. The supporters should bethink themselves that they are helping to send out Cornell's first eight, and they may be helping-happy thought-to diminish Yale's "big head." The honor of sitting in Cornell...
...good scheme to start a hockey club? There need be no elaborate organization; the dues should be nominal, merely enough to keep a supply of balls. The club would be notified through the CRIMSON every day when there is skating, and a good game would thus be assured. I think that many men who are now indifferent to this sport would take a livelier interest in it if they could be certain of not having a cold tramp to the pond only to find the ice in poor condition or the games of hockey all monopolized by the muckers...
...also seizing him about the head, providing he be not choked. So hard has been the ruling this season that many a fine tackler is absolutely afraid to take a man at any spot except almost under the arms.

"Just think what you gain by a kick!" is a very common phrase, and the spectators are sure to raise a shout as the ball rises over the heads of the players, and goes-to the other side. Harvard kicked very little this year. She might have kicked more; she could scarcely have kicked less. Princeton has always been famous for good kickers, and she had a good one this year in her full-back. Yale kicked more than either. There...
...full, we are perfectly willing to allow our correspondent a much larger share of knowledge of these matters than we possess. But he goes further and censures us for demanding an itemized account of such a figure as $693.48 for wages. We reserve the right to ourselves, and we think every man in the university may claim as much, to have an explanation for the sums disbursed for the crew. In this particular in stance, the explanation given shows that the janitor of the boat house is paid $60 a month for twelve months of the year. We have asserted...
