FOR A BIGGER BATTLE.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At a time when some forty-seven thousand people are assembled together for the purpose of enjoyment, and when train upon train brings eager throngs from all over the East, it is fitting to consider for a brief moment the calamitous suffering now being endured all over Europe.

The amount collected at the Harvard-Princeton game was $3,200. At the Yale-Princeton game, which was witnessed by 55,000 people, only $5,276.80 was contributed, an average of less than ten cents per individual. If every spectator today contributes a dollar, the resulting total will present an irrefutable proof that American sympathy and willingness to help have not died out.
