Harvard-Yale Correspondence.

When Harvard arranged two games in baseball with Yale, it will be remembered that the two universities could not agree on a date upon which to play the tie game if necessary. It was decided, however, to leave the question open until May 1. During that time there has been considerable correspondence. This the CRIMSON publishes to day as self-explanatory of Harvard's attitude.

April 20th, 1893.Mr. Noah H. Swayne, Manager Y. U. B. B. A., New Haven, Conn.

DEAR SIR:

The outcome of the Yale - Harvard baseball games last year - one victory for each college, and the tie not played off - was so unsatisfactory to all interested in true sport that we desire to prevent if possible a similar experience this year. As our present arrangement provides for a game in Cambridge on June 22d, and a game in New Haven on June 27th, we hereby invite you in case these games result in a tie, to play a third game on any day after June 27th, (our Commencement Day). and before July 5th. We are willing to play the game on neutral ground or, if you prefer, to toss for the right to name the place, the side losing the toss to have the right to name the place of the next tie game in a subsequent year.

We sincerely hope that you will give us a favorable and an early reply.

Very sincerely yours,

(Signed)

LEWIS D. HILL,Manager H. U. B. B. C.
