...expect the meeting next year? It seems now that this is to be the probable outcome of the discussion, and that next year will see the race on one of the two Thames rivers. In case of a race here next September, we do not think it would be advisable to hold Cambridge to the race, if we are defeated by Yale in July. Neither crew would be as willing, or effective in such a case. But let us hope that such a case will not present itself. Our success against Yale will undoubtedly be the great incentive...

If these gentlemen labor under the misapprehension that base-ball is an innate accomplishment, and not the result of hard, steady work they are mistaken, and the sooner they rid their minds of this idea, the better it will be for their reputation in the eyes of the college, and Princeton's chances for the championship. However, we are still in the race, and our hope, though diminished...
