College Cricket.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Philadelphia Press, a few days since, in speaking of college cricket, says:

"The University of Pennsylvania has for years had teams so much stronger than it was possible for any other college to put into the field, that in every game a victory for the red and blue was a certainty. This, of course, must necessarily have the effect of deterring other colleges from undertaking a games in which they were certain to encounter defeat. In spite of considerable opposition, however, and owing mainly to the exertions of Mr. R. D. Brown, of the Germantown Club, and several other Philadelphia Cricketers, a team was organized at Harvard, and last year Harvard challenged Yale. During the past week the same step was taken with Princeton. Yale did not accept last season, and in view of the fact that Princeton will not take the trouble to organize an eleven merely to add to the triumphs of Harvard, a game between Princeton and Harvard is out of the question."
