...challenging our freshmen to a race, Yale has undertaken to renew a custom which existed about a dozen years ago, but which, for reasons unknown to us, was given up. We think it was in 1873 that the last Yale-Harvard freshmen race was rowed. The question that troubles the Harvard freshmen now, whether or not to row with Yale, is a difficult one to decide. To Yale the proposed race offers very evident advantages, while to Harvard it offers extra work and probably extra expense, without any great benefit that we can see. Perhaps the only argument that Harvard...
...Friday evening of this week the Yale Glee Club will give a concert in Boston at Tremont Temple. We think that this is the first time that Yale has ever shown its vocal talent in Boston, and therefore it is doubly unfortunate that so many Harvard men will be at home for the spring recess, as we are assured that the concert to be given Friday is to be an exceptionally good one. However, a number of students will remain in Cambridge during the coming week, and we hope and feel confident that we do not hope in vain - that...

A very possible contingency, however, such as a sprained arm or a broken finger might materially alter the result. - Outing for April...
...fact that the ground used by the club last year was extremely poor for the purposes of the game, it is also true that the playing seriously conflicted with the other sports. That the club deserved credit for its unusual energy last serson is not to be doubted. We think, however, judging from present reports, that greater credit is to be won this season, simply by reason of greater energy. To the men interested in cricket, and especially to those who engage in the game, we extend our best wishes. We hope that their club will more than merely live...
