THE successful issue of our Spring Athletic Sports, as well as the success of our representatives at Mott Haven, cannot but prove most gratifying to every one interested in Harvard Athletics. Our College has now taken a prominent position in track athletics among her sister colleges, and there are many of our records to which we can point with just pride; still we must not rest content with past achievements, but look forward to even greater success in the future. We need but one thing to keep the athletic interest at Harvard as keen as it is now, and that is the establishment of a series of athletic sports with Yale. Our class boat-races arouse a great deal of enthusiasm, it is true, but the interest is as nothing when compared with the New London contests, where our representative oarsmen measure their strength and skill with those of our New Haven contemporaries. The same principle applies, as well, to base ball and football. The Yale games are always watched with much more eagerness than any others which our teams play. In the same way we cannot but feel that an annual series of athletic sports with Yale would spur our athletes on to their best endeavors, and occasion a great improvement in the College records, not to speak of planting the seeds of a lasting enthusiasm in Athletics at Harvard by thus making the sports a matter of general interest to the College at large. Oxford and Cambridge have kept up this custom of Inter-University sports for the last sixteen years, and the inevitable success of these yearly meetings should certainly prove a sufficient inducement to Harvard and Yale to try the experiment. We shall hope next year to see our representative athletes side by side with those of Yale, and predict the unqualified success of the project, should it ever be put into execution.
