We hope that every man who remains in Cambridge to-day, and who can afford it - and there are few who cannot - will go out on Holmes this afternoon and watch the lacrosse game between Harvard and Cambridge. The team merits all support from the college for its great achievements of last year; and from the capital game which the team is playing this year, we have no doubt that it will repeat its last year's record. At any rate, those who go out on Eolmes this afternoon will see a good game. Lacrosse has to appeal to a prejudiced audience at Harvard; to an audience already devoted to base-ball and rowing and foot-ball, where predis-positions can only be overcome by exciting contests in which they become actively interested. For many men on being asked if they have ever seen a lacrosse game, answer, "No, and I never want to!" Such men should be ashamed of their foolish and obstinate disregard of what is growing to be one of the most popular sports of this country. Let them go to Holmes Field this afternoon and make up their minds whether they "never wish to see another lacrosse game or not;" we assure them that they will wish to see not only one, but many.
