Princeton can at last fairly claim a hard won championship in foot-ball. While the contest this year has hardly excited at Harvard the interest taken in it during past years deeper interest in the individual work of the players has never, perhaps, been shown. The playing of Yale as a team cannot be classed as worthy of its usual high commendation, but, notwithstanding the evident lack of first-class material, there was still exhibited much of the old time determination to win. But fortune has, for this time at least, decided against the blue. We recognize the pluck shown by the members of the Yale team, but at last their old rivals have surpassed them. There has always existed thorough cordiality between our players and those of Princeton, and we appreciate our opportunity to congratulate the champions upon their well-earned victory. We extend our heartiest good wishes to them, and hope that we may soon be able to enjoy the privilige of meeting them once more on the field.
