...back muffed, but got the ball on the run. Boyden made a short run as did Wood. Four downs. Bancroft scored on a fumble of Pennsylvania, after Trafford had stopped a kick by Graham. No goal; 36 0. Zeigler ran the ball by Bancroft, who allowed him to run around him. Pennsylvania kicked. Saxe got the ball and returned it, caught it again on the run but fumbled. Trafford picked it up and rushed ahead. Butler, Wood and Boyden advanced, and Saxe made the last touchdown and kicked the goal from one side. Final score; 42-0. The ball...
...grand stand. George passed the ball back to Hancock, rushers formed a V, and Princeton gained ten yards. Cowan-great, heavy Cowan- on whom Princeton relies so much, broke through the line and gained five yards by sheer brute force. Then Ames tried and gained nothing. Ames then ran around Pratt's end and made five yards, but on the next down little Beecher squirmed through and got the ball. On a fumble by half-back, Yale lost ten yards and had a down on her fifteen-yard line. Bull kicked a sky-scooper and Pratt and Wallace launched themselves...
...instead of their initials is a very welcome one. "The Curse of an Imagination" is a very lively sketch, and gives signs of quite a good deal of study of human nature. Particularly good is the description of the way in which a man's thoughts "begin to revolve around themselves" in a ride to Boston. "In June" is very melodious and sounds like two rich warm opening chords to a pastorate symphony. One regrets the absence of the pastorate symphony. "Ma Contemporaine," a translation from Beranger, is not well done. It lacks entirely the grace of the original. Following...
Every man on the Harvard team worked hard, but our ends were no ticeably weak in letting the Princeton's men run around them. Boyden's work for a man who has played but a few times in his position was remarkable and is deserving of great praise. Considering the loss of our captain in so early a stage of the game, the team held together very well under Harding. The men must not be too much elated over this game, however, for Yale has a heavier rush line than Princeton and only hard work and strict attention...
Last week the freshmen and sophomores had their first "rush" of the year, and rather to the surprise of the college, '90 was completely done up. It was quite a mild affair, and for the first time in years there was no fight around the cannon. The spirit of hazing has died out here to a very great extent, apparently, and whether due to the gentleness of '90 or the severity of the proctors there has been less this year than ever before. The good effects are plainly visible in the increased number of freshmen seen on the track...
