stop in and see us. You may
find what you want, and if you
don’t, at least no harm is done.

HARVARD CREW DINNER.
President Eliot Wants Variety in
Harvard’s Competitors—Gov.
Roosevelt’s Position.
The dinner tendered to MHarvard’s
victorious oarsmen at the American
House, Boston, Friday evening was at-
tended. by over 400 Harvard graduates
and guests, including President Eliot,
Governor Wolcott and Governor Roose-
velt. The three crews who won from
Yale last June were present and each
member of them received an ovation.
Besides these athletes, the track men,
who won points for Harvard in the
Intercollegiate meeting, and the baseball
nine were present. Mr. C. C. Beaman
of New York was toastmaster and after
the dinner was over, three hours were
passed in speech-making. Every man
who had a hand in helping Harvard to
make her great record in athletics last
year was warmly praised and William A.
Brooks thanked them all in the name
of the University for their endeavors
and presented each man with a gold pin.
A cablegram of greeting was also sent
to Coach R. C. Lehmann at his home in
England. .
President Eliot gave a considerable
portion of his speech to the consideration
of athletics, and to Harvard’s choice of
competitors, and in the course of his
2 as according to the Boston Globe,
said:
“T like very much the expression of
Mr. Storrow that we wanted our share
of winnings. The competition with one
university always winning would soon
become tame. We want our opponents
winning sometimes. To be sure, to
make things even we ought to win for

CHARLES H. HAYNES,
Proprietor.
several years to come. Then I want to
sav a word about our legitimate competi-
tors in this sport; in all our sports. I
don’t like being tied up to any competi-
tors in any sport, and I don’t know
_ which university I should like to choose
if I had to do so. We want a variety.
We want to row with the best club after
Harvard; we want to play with the best
baseball club after Harvard and the best
football team after Harvard. Seek al-
ways the most competent competitor, no
matter where it is.
“Now consider the total number of
students in a half dozen American uni-
versities within easy reach of us. Our
number of students this year is about
5200. About how many has Yale? Just
about half the number of students.
There are two universities that have
more than Yale—Columbia and Cornell
—and in my judgment Cornell is going
to go ahead of Yale rapidly in the num-
ber of students. Moreover there are
some sports in which Cornell is likely
greatly to excel. I believe in Harvard’s
seeking the best competitor all round,
everywhere, the very best, and not tying
itself to any one. Nobody, I believe,
appreciates more highly than I do the
value of athletics in a university.”
When Governor Roosevelt arose he
paid a magnificent tribute to the Har-
vard athletes and the system recently
adopted which made their work possible.
Regarding Yale as an antagonist Gover-
nor Roosevelt said:
“There is one point upon which I
fear I should be a little heretical, accord-
ing to the president’s view. I am a bit
of a dual league man myself. I wish
from time to time we would have ath-
letic contests of the crew. of the nine,
or eleven with men from any part of the
United States, but for a steady, year in
and year out antagonist in all branches
give me Yale.”
These sentiments were loudly ap-
plauded by the assembly.

just been made to the Sheffield Scientific
School of Yale University by Mr. Wil-
liam A. Rogers of Buffalo, New York,

Yale-Princeton Souvenir.
The Yale-Princeton sotivenir score
card for the game next Saturday, will
be different from that published in past
years. Instead of being in the form of
a football, as formerly, the score card
will be rectangular in shape, its dimen-
sions being five by seven inches. The
cover design will be blue with the Yale
seal embossed in white, and the back
will be orange with the Princeton seal
embossed in black. The contents,
twelve pages in all, will include the line-
up and statistics of the two teams, the
records of former Yale-Princeton games
and four pictures, one of each Captain
and team. .
This souvenir, which will be published
by Elliott & Co., of Philadelphia, is to
contain no advertisements and will be
sold for twenty-five cents.
