THE Captain of the University Football Team has received a letter from a graduate in New York, in which the writer calls attention to the great interest manifested there in the game, and laments that Harvard has not yet been able to take the lead. He is disappointed that the interest here is insufficient, and that our men show too little desire by hard training to ensure their success. He closes by expressing the hope that next year a marked improvement may be shown in this respect; and that, by beginning early and working hard, Harvard may justly claim the victory.
