"Would Have Killed Him ="

According to the Boston Traveller
this is what the Yale boys would have
done to the negro student that pre-
sumed to play foot ball With them On
the Harvard team had he stayed In
the game. It seems that when Ha1.
ward and Yale played their annual
match game Of foot ball recently the
former institution put a negro boy
forward as one OF It's players. Selected
By his Alnoa Mater as fitting repre-
sentative Of her sporting interests, he
dared to meet on terms OF foot ball
equality the white youth OF New Eng.
land. They did rot do as young ger-
tlemen OF other sections Of the coun.
try might have done, refuse to go on
with the game. Outwardjy they ac-
cepted the darky as proper and
worthy opponent, but secretly they
made up their minds to MAIN OF kill
him.
Here is the heart-rending account OF
the incident as we find it recorded in
tbs Boston Traveller: There Is not
the slightest guestica but that Yale's
players tried to disable Matthews.
They hammered ana slugged him 80
hard that be was knocked out and had
to retire from the game. There Is but
little doubt that they would have
killed him il be had stayed In. One
player grabbed the negro around the
q OK and twisted 1t 80 hard that Mat
thews's life was In danger. Yale took
it as an insult because Harvard offer
ed an alleged affront by insisting on
playing a negro" The Traveller goes
on to say that Princeton took tn
same attitude against Dartmouth a
year ago an6 slugged and kicked the
negro Dartmouth player so hard that
they fractured his ribs within FIVE
minutes and forced him out. Princeton
and Yale's positions are that they are
white mems colleges and that Harvard
can find plenty OF good white men to
play without insulting them by play
Ing ncgroes.'
In other words" says The News
and Courier, "we are told that the
students Of Yale went to work to
lynch a student of Harvard in the
presence OF $4,000 spectators and in
one Of the most civilized, intelligent
and law abiding communities of New
England. The crime committed by
the negro was merely one OF presuup-
tion." That is true, but, as The News
and Courier goes on to say, all in sl)
the incident is a most instructive and
edifying one, and We recommend 1t to
the thoughtful attention Of our ne
grophue neigEbors. It is unfortunate
ly true that certain people in the
South maze up their minds to lynch
negroes on occasion, but they never
20 about 1t in the underhanded and
peculiarly reprehensible way employed
by the students of Yale. When in the
hands ct Southern mob there is
never any doubt in the mind Of ne
gre culprit as to what to expect, but
this little Harvard dsrky, it would ap-
pear, did not get what President
Roosevelt might term a square eeal. !"
He thought he was goiE g to partici-
pate in foot ball contest, while In re-
ality be offered himself vicaIiously
for the star part In lynching bee" :"
