A LETTER from New Haven to a New York paper about the Yale crew says that some feeling exists at Yale about "the statement that Harvard is boasting that all that is wanted in the next race by Harvard is to see how much Yale's time can be beaten." Now we wish to assure our Yale friends that the statement referred to is false. Harvard never has made that silly boast, and does not intend to. She knows the uncertainty of the chances of boat-races too well to feel sure of anything except that she will try her best. Most of the bad feeling between the two Colleges arises from such groundless suspicions of one another, as Yale's belief in this statement indicates. We hope that Yale will believe Harvard too courteous, at least, to make such insulting boasts.
