This matter must be made a personal
one with every thoughtful Yale man.
It is the problem of preserving our old
strength as we gain our new. it-4s
the problem whose failure to solve left
Harvard in the slough of despond for
nearly three college generations. it is
the problem whose failure on Yale’s part
to solve will make it seem to the world
that she has lost the best thing she has.
We believe that the feeling of some

individual athletes about ‘their’ Y~ is
rather a symptom than a-cause.. It may
have appeared here and there in indi-
vidual cases and naturally has caused a
great deal of comment because it was
so strikngly opposed to the spirit of Yale
athletics. But there are not many such
athletes. The trouble is more deep
seated. It is the failure of the individ-
ual in the Yale community to feel his re-
sponsibility. :
Every means to supply that often miss-
ing feeling must be adopted. The
change of the Society system is one
strong move in the right direction. If
we can add to that a club which shall
be a University home for all Yale men,
we shall draw still higher the cord of
community feeling.
One thing we recommend ~ very
strongly—that the athletic managers
consider whether they may ‘not more
wisely look more often to the under-
graduates themselves to-meet athletic
expenses. The undergraduate -is not
paying anything like the per capita sum
for athletics that he was ten years ago.
That is one reason why he is not so
directly interested in other ways of sup--
porting athletics.

THE PLAY.
The officers and players and sup-
porters of the Yale Dramatic Associa-
tion have placed the University under a
debt of gratitude. They undertook a
very dificult work, and made a brilliant
success of it. The University declared
through the performance a certain
strength and tone not always up to this
point credited to her.

BASEBALL MISTAKES.
The Princeton Alumni Weekly takes
the Princeton Nine to. task for what
is described, by people who sit around
score boards, as playing ball with the
mouth. Not being particularly in-
formed about the particular circum-
stances of the game with Cornell, at
which the chief sounds were made, we
may say, without discourtesy to an
ally, that the criticism of the Princeton
Alummu Weekly pleases us. It pleases
us, because all fighting against such
things in University athletics pleases us.
It also reminds that the habit of talk-
ing is growing on the Yale Nine. This
uninterrupted mutual encouragement
loses something of its force by its
continousness. It is also wearying and
detracts from the pleasure of the game.
It passes also easily into attempts to
trouble the other side, which is any-
thing but good baseball, the nature of
the, game being :athletic. . It is not
adapted to debate.
And this further reminds us of certain
spectators who cumber the _ bleachers.
The incident of the Lehigh game, re-
ferred to elsewhere, should never be
repeated on a Yale athletic field. Cap-
tain Camp would be perfectly justified
in: joming with the Captain of the op-
posing team in a request to the umpire
to suspend the game until such people
as the offenders at the Lehigh game
were either obliged to leave the ground,
or publicly agreed to be decent. Men
who try to rattle the players of the
opposing team are a disgrace to their
college. Time was when these tactics
were freely resorted to in most all inter-
collegiate contests. We may be thank-
ful that that time has gone by. Alumni
sometimes come back to reunions and
fall into the old habit of trying to help
play the game with the noise they can
make. Those, however, who have kept
in touch with the improving spirit of
athletic sport, know that the only ap-
plause which is welcome is the ap-
plause of good plays and the applause
of encouragement. We think the latter
can be cut down considerably, and
should never be allowed to interfere with
the work of the opposing players.

For the information of any troubled
alumni, we beg to say that the opportuni-
ties for lying about Yale have seldom
