Tomorrow afternoon occurs the annual game between the Harvard and Princeton lacrosse teams. This game as it is well known is the contest in preparation for which the Harvard lacrosse team does its hard work, all things are made subservient, when it is a question of a victory or a defeat. Last year we lost, but this year in spite of many disadvantages we hope to see the crimson come out victorious. The lacrosse team has been hard at work, and if diligence in practice and faithfulness in training count for anything, we may certainly hope to greet our team as victors, after the game on Saturday. One of the disadvantages under which they labored last year, was playing on strange grounds, surrounded by spectators anxious to see them beaten, and this year that disadvantage is happily removed, and this year they will play in the midst of friends, anxious to see them win. The contest this year is a critical point in the existence of lacrosse at Harvard. If we win, the success of the game is insured but if we lose, which we sincerely hope will not happen next year's team will labor under great disadvantages and it will be only with the greatest efforts that the game will hold its place among our sports. Let all go and cheer the men to do their best, remembering that a victory means not only honor for the team, but also for the college it represents.
