We published in yesterday's paper a very naive communication from an '89 man on the subject of the abandonment of the Grand Stand project, in which he asserted that there was "a startling amount of indifference to the glorious records of the nine and Mott Haven team displayed in the relinquishment of this project." We have received several letters from graduates and undergraduates in regard to this, - men whose names are extremely high in Harvard's athletic annals, and they are without exception, opposed to the plan. In the first place, it is inadvisable to saddle an additional expense on the college at present. After the lofty freshman who speaks as lightly about the expense of the project has been in college a year, the infliction of an additional $4,500 on him and his class will not seem quite such a bagatelle after all. Apart from the fact that it would be very doubtful if the now beautiful Holmes Field would not be injured by the cheap edifice at one end of it, we are sure that the ball nine and the Mott Haven team would much prefer to see the energy, which is to be exerted to keep the championships at Harvard, displayed in furnishing them subscriptions for necessary expenses, and candidates for vacancies, rather than providing new seats for the penniless '89 men to sit upon to witness their victories. The old seats must do for another year at least.
