The management of the Football team has done an excellent thing in sending several prominent members of the team during the past week to coach the elevens at Andover and Exeter. The show of that interest, which Harvard certainly feels for these preparatory schools, will do much to increase the favor in which Harvard is held by them, and will aid in inducing graduates from them to come to Harvard. Not only will prominent athletes be induced to enter Harvard, but the interest shown in the schools will create among the students there a general interest in this University in return which will bring many graduates here.
Today the first football game between Andover and Exeter under the new league, will be played at Andover and it is to be hoped that a large number of graduates of the two schools, now at Harvard, will go with the excursions to Andover today to see the game, and show their approval of the good sense which led the academies to lay aside their differences and renew their former athletic rivalry.
