Football with the University of Pennsylvania

The statement made in yesterday's papers to the effect that arrangements for football games between University of Pennsylvania and Harvard had been completed, was in advance of the fact. The statement of Professor Thayer was also misquoted. Professor Thayer only expressed the hope that games might be arranged. As early as last January Harvard received an informal letter from Pennsylvania on lining briefly a scheme for games. This scheme has been under consideration and it is not unlikely that an arrangement for games may be agreed upon. As yet, however, there has been nonofficial correspondence on the subject. Harvard has received no proposition from Pennsylvania, and there has been no conference between the two Universities. Whatever may be done later, it is certain that at present there is no foundation for the current report that arrangements for games have been completed.
