From the reports which have come from New Haven during the week past, it is very evident that Harvard will have to bestir herself in order to maintain the supremacy in debating next year. Yale men may or may not care much about debating. Probably the feeling there does not differ greatly from what it is here. But this we know full well, - that Yale men do care a great deal about being beaten, and that now that the graduates are fairly awake something will be done to improve Yale's chances of victory.
Harvard must meet this activity by a like increase of energy. There is but one way to do this and that is for every man here who has any ability at all in speaking to interest himself, and to show his interest by taking part in the competitive debates. We hope that there will be a very large number of candidates for the honor of representing the University in the contest with Princeton.
