BOSTON, June %—Harvard Univer- sily's committee on athletic sports has sent a reply to the Invitation of Oxford and Cambrfage universities to an inter- national university athletic contest in this country next Autumn, The reply, which is @ declination, has been cabled by the Associated Press to the repre: sentatives of Oxford and Cambridge. It is aw follows: HARVARD UNIVERSITY, Cambridge, Mass,, U. 8. A. June 24, ‘95. Messrs. W. J. Oakley and F, 8, Horan, Presidents of the University Athletic Clubs of Oxford and Cambridge. Dear Sirs: Your letter of June 10, tn- viting Harvard University to unite with Yaie University in meeting the univer- sities of Oxford and Cambridge in an athletic competition In this country next Autumn, has been referred to the Harvard Committee on the regulation of athletic «ports. We appreciate highly the courtesy of your invitation, gpd it is with much regret that we feel obliged to forego the pleasure of the proposed competi- ton. We could hardly accept your invita- tion without assuming in appearance at least’ that Harvard and Yale occupy the prominent position among American universities which is held among Eng- lish universities by Oxford and Cam- bridge. As there is no foundation in fact for such a pretension, we think It better for university athletics in this country, as well as for university in- ts in general, that we should not lend any countenance to it, and that we should, furthermore, avoid all sem- blance of a spirit of exclusivenes towards our sister universities Nor, considering the narrow ground of athletic skill, can we forget that, in the latest competition among American universities, Harvard won only the third place, As @ matter of general principle, it seems to us that international student competitions would be best arranged either between two groups of univeral- ties, fairly resenting the general body of students in each country, or else between single universities on each side. We regret that you were not free to accept the Invitation of the American Interecilegiate Association, and we are especially sorry !f any misconception as to our attitude in regard to that in- vitation influenced you in declining it. We should be pleased if even now you were disposed, with Yale's concurrence, to arrange for a competition on the basis of that Invitation, If we should be fortunate enough in rome future year to win on this side of the water the leadership of the track athletics which this year belongs so unquestionably to Yale, we shall hope to have the pleasure of competing with one of ycu as the winner of the Oxford- Cambridge games. Very truly your J.B. AMES, Chairman Harvard Committee.
