...very closely contested. Harvard seemed overmatched from the start. Princeton had very little difficulty in breaking through and Harvard could not get through Princeton's line at all. Princeton's rush line was decidedly heavier than ours, averaging 177 pounds. The team play of Harvard was very bad, although many of the men did brilliant work. Captain Sears rushed and punted well, but fumbled badly. Harding at times passed very wildly. The best playing for Harvard was done by Trafford, Cumnock. Cranston, Porter and Sears. For Princeton, Ames excelled in rushing and punting, while Cook and Cowan did superb work...
...presence always inspires the eleven, and he is of inestimable value to the captain as a coach. His long acquaintance with the foot-ball field enables him to give his men valuable hints about the characteristics of the Harvard and Yale players. He has but recently joined the eleven, although his play with a team in Albany has kept him in practice, S. Hodge has retired permanently. His injury in the Wesleyan game was such as to necessitate this action. His loss is a severe blow to the team, although Riggs, his successor, has thus far shown up well...

Such a book may prove ??entertaining for those interested in psychical research, although the and ??? theories are too chimerical to be a ken seriously. It is not probable ??? believes in them himself. The book is well written, and is at times interesting; but every few ??? the philosophical cloud descends, and the reader gropes about in darkness...
...Although a large number of new lockers have been put in the gymnasium recently, the supply is still inadequate for the demand. It is a pity that men who desire to have the benefit of a good gymnasium during the winter months should be prevented simply because there are not enough lockers to go around. If possible, a few more should be built in the basement of the gymnasium, even if one of the bowling alleys had to be taken out to make room for them. Before the weather becomes so disagreeable as to put an end to outdoor exercise...
