Arrangements were made on Saturday with the management of the Yale freshman nine for a third and decisive game on Saturday next at Worcester. At least, so it was understood by the management of our own nine. Monday morning, however, we understand that a telegram was received from New Haven declaring Worcester out of the question on account of poor grounds and small gate receipts. The original agreement was, that the game was to be player in the Yale faculty did not object to the date, and as yet, we have not been told that they do object.

When we consider similar action on the part of the Yale freshmen in 1876 and 1877, and on the part of the University nine last year, we must confess that this move of Yale '86 seems in perfect accordance with Yale's past reputation. The only thing left for Yale to do is to announce the game in next year's Banner as forfeited to Yale by a score of 9 to 0, as has been done in similar cases. Let us hope, however, that Yale will consent to some arrangement by which the decisive game of the series may be played off at a time and place satisfactory to both parties.
