The assurance of a baseball game between Harvard '96 and Yale '96 is very welcome. Both of the classes have strong nines, and will be heartily glad of the chance to decide to whom the championship belongs which was left unclaimed in their freshman year. The Harvard juniors should feel themselves responsible for making the game a success in every way. Yale was the first to propose to play and of her own accord offered to come to Cambridge. It is a point of honor with Ninety-six to see that her nine is well received.
As far as interest in the game goes, there can be no fear; any form of rivalry between Harvard and Yale is sure to attract eager attention. It is well, though, to urge the necessity for financial support. The management here is at present wholly without funds, and the demands of collectors should therefore be willingly met. The receipts from the game itself are not to be counted upon entirely for covering expenses. Ninety-six men will surely realize that any delay on their part in fulfilling to the uttermost the conditions which have been made with Yale, is not to be tolerated. We believe that the junior managers will find their task an easy one.
