We understand that subscriptions to the freshman nine are coming in but slowly. The freshmen should understand that their team must be heartily supported in order to make a creditable showing. The nine has expenses which must be met by immediate contributions. In the present unsettled state of negotiations with Yale, no reliance can be placed upon gate-money from a Yale game, and this is practically the only possible source of income besides subscriptions. The nine must not be handicapped by lack of funds either now or later in the season. Together with the crews it has the first claim upon the freshmen for subscriptions. With the increasing interest in athletics which now seems to be spreading through the college, there should be not only more candidates for the teams but more active financial support.
