...defeat of the football team by the University of Pennsylvania yesterday, was a surprise to the college. After the good steady work of the team and the constant improvement which has been shown in their play, the college had begun to think that we were to have a foot ball team which would at least do as well as that of last year. In spite of the unexpected defeat of yesterday we still think that our team is capable of good play. Many of the men have had but little experience on a University football team and can acquire steadiness...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON-I hope it is not too late to make a suggestion through your columns, in regard to the uniform of the drum corps. In the first place I think that whatever the uniform is, the prevailing color should be red, or crimson, the college color, rather than blue. It has always been the aim of the Harvard men in the torch light processions to make their dress as odd and striking as possible ; the class uniforms this year are no exception to this rule.

When the committee was appointed to provide uniforms, many in the class...
Every man must turn out and anything which prevents a man from joining the procession should be avoided. For this reason alone we think that uniforms should, be given up. It would have been much better if the other classes had not decided upon uniforms, but as they have already decided, we can only urge their committees to get the uniforms as cheaply as possible and make them as ridiculous as possible. In regard to seniors we would urge the committee to wait until the meeting of the class tomorrow night, when a few minutes could be devoted...
...feeling of the younger graduates of Harvard is an intense one, and that they cannot be true to principles taught them at college without taking a strong stand against Blaine. Mr. Waite, L. S., said that they ought to support President Eliot, and not allow the outside world to think him alienated in political opinion from the entire body of students for the sake of mere unanimity, when, in fact, no unanimity really exists. Sewall, L. S., stated that they should do for Cleveland what they have already done for Blaine : they should parade in the Cleveland procession and make...
