The generous gift of the Athletic Association of the United States Military Academy at West Point to our football association will be warmly appreciated here. Football at West Point is a comparatively new institution, and the athletic association as yet has no accumulated fund to fall back upon. The management is not allowed to charge any entrance fee to the games, and consequently has to depend entirely upon subscriptions collected from the students. When the Harvard Football Association realized this they declined to accept the money guaranteed them by West Point for their expenses in going to the game. In recognition of their courtesy the West Point Association has sent this very beautiful loving cup. The generosity and good feeling shown by the West Point cadets appeals strongly to every Harvard man, and on behalf of the students of this University we extend the warmest thanks to the Athletic Association of the United States Military Academy.
