In another column we reprint part of an editorial which appeared in the Yale News yesterday. It is evident that Yale men are dissatisfied with the treatment which they have received at the hands of our freshmen. They understand that the matter has not been settled as yet, and are impatient for some final action. It is plain, however, that the Yale challenge was acted upon decisively by Ninety and as far as technicalities are concerned nothing has been done of which Yale can justly complain. Ninety has voted to row the Yale freshmen on the Charles, or not at all. Thus far, the matter is decided. But we believe that something more must be done. There is a feeling prevalent in college that the freshman class in voting as they did, failed to show a manly spirit and have adopted unworthy tactics. If the course at New London is suitable for a triple race, and Columbia desires the contest, then it is the plain duty of our freshmen to take the most honorable course open to them and accept the challenge. If the course is proved unsuitable, then the matter is decided once for all. There are many men amongst us who think that it is undesirable to have another yearly contest with Yale. We have, perhaps, enough already. But to assert as a reason for refusal that such a contest will give Yale the same advantages which we have, is to cast reflections upon the ability of our 'Varsity teams to cope with those of Yale on fair and equal terms, and is unworthy of Harvard men. The matter hinges now on the suitability of the Thames course for a triple race. Therefore let a meeting of the freshman class be called at once by the proper officers, in view of the general feeling of dissatisfaction which has been openly expressed, and put the question of reconsideration. If that is carried, and we sincerely trust for the honor of the college that it will be, then we suggest that a committee of three be appointed, consisting of a graduate oarsman, the captain of the 'Varsity crew, and the captain of the '89 freshman crew, to meet a similar committee from Columbia, and formally to decide upon the fitness of the course. As Yale is the challenging party, the decision in the matter lies with Columbia and Harvard, and with them alone. The majority opinion of these experts should be final, and will be satisfactory to all parties concerned. If the decision is favorable, the challenge should again be considered; if unfavorable the matter is ended forever, and with no possibility for ill-feeling on the part of anyone. We believe that this is the only honorable course which the class of Ninety can pursue, and we urge them, each man, to consider the matter seriously and not allow unanswerable charges to remain longer against themselves or the college.
