The students will have plenty of excitement in the way of athletic events today. Here at Cambridge will be two football games and the handicap meeting of the H. A. A.; at New York will be the 'varsity game with Cornell, and at Manheim the great Princeton-Pennsylvania game which has provoked so much comment since the recent discussion on the undergraduate rule. These two games will form an interesting topic for conversation during the afternoon. As we said yesterday this very variety of events will probably interfere with the complete success of any one of them. It will do no good to urge men to go to the University game in preference to the football contests; and vice vesa it is absurd to advise men to cling to their class feeling and neglect the University games. Even were it reasonable to do either one of these things we cannot from our position, side with one contest to the exclusion of the other. This combination of events on one day is unfortunate, but nothing can be done about it except to treat all of them as fairly as possible. It will be only just for as many men as possible to give at least part of the afternoon to the athletic meeting on Holmes; the seniors and juniors should certainly see part of the class game and then, if possible, should attend the track meeting. Certainly the mere loiterers, the men who do not care where they go, ought to give their afternoon to the athletic association. This is the end of track athletics for the season and the games today should be given a fair chance with the football.
