...eleven, when its management has saved money enough over the expenses to buy them. But on the part of the crew men, such meanness presumptuous; it is a poor return for the readiness with which the football management offered to divide its surplus with them. The foot-ball men want $140 to get a ten-dollar cup for each man on the team and for the substitutes. The request is a modest enough one even if they did not have a cent for buying them. When, however, they have $280, half of which they volunteer to give to the crew...
Lack of enthusiasm-Harvard indifference-has been dinged in our ears for years past as the cause of our athletic defeats. Some men, however, have seen more deeply, and have struck at the real cause both of Harvard's indifference and her want of success. Athletics are free from artificial and injurious restraint, and a vigorous hope of success is taking the place of a growing despair that Harvard would ever again win victory.

When, however, other Cambridge streets are used indiscriminately this mutual understanding is violated by us. Cambridge people have, of course, a right to ask that the men should run on one street only...
...length been finally settled that the Glee and Banjo Clubs are to give their concert in Chickering Hall, New York, on Saturday, the twenty-second of this month. As the demand for seats will undoubtedly be very great in New York, we want to urge the management of the concert to have some of the best seats for sale here in Cambridge, for the convenience of the New York men in college. This plan was tried successfully by the football management a year ago, and there is no reason to doubt that it would meet equal success if tried...
