Yale Courant Editorial.

The following editorial on the athletic question appeared in the last number of the Yale Courant:

"The attitude taken by Harvard in her recent letter to the Yale base-ball management we consider most fair and sportsman like. She has clearly outlined her policy which is one that is quite all embracing on the points at issue, and yet not so radical as to cause her to fall into any act of injustice either towards her own candidates or the teams and representatives of other colleges. The rules which she proposes to adopt in her athletic reform are in some respects less sweeping than those we have here adopted; in other points they are even more radical. In all they seem to us to be thoroughly fair, and certainly suitable for the successful accomplishment of the end at which all the American colleges should aim - the purification of intercollegiate athletics. An amicable and satisfactory termination of those questions which necessarily arise from time to time between Yale and her "dearest foe" is not always hailed with delight by the press of the country, but here on the campus we do not care for sensational head-lines half as much as we do for the arrangement of a series of games."
