The following song, written by a graduate of the Class of ’81, may be sung at the Princeton game to original music: Hurrah! Hurrah! Lift up the cry for Yale. Fling out, with shout, her banner to the gale. On waves of song our cheers are borne along: Rally, boys, for Eli! Hurrah for Yale! No foe we know, that can inspire a fear ; Defeat we meet with just another cheer ; If for an hour it seems to overpower, It’s “Rally, boys, for Eli! Hurrah for Yale! A cheer sincere to the bravest of our foes, ° The zest is best when heaviest are the blows. Our gauntlet’s thrown, but the hand will clasp your own. Rally, boys, for Eli! Hurrah for Yale!” All hail to Yale! Her trophies set it forth How true the blue to loyalty and worth. Our banners wave over legions of the brave. Whoop her up for Eli! Hurrah for Yale! vy > Cornell Wins Cross Country.
