...poor in this district, Harvard students seek out in person the objects of their charity and labor to raise them to a higher life. It is safe to say that in no other college is there such effective organization of charitable and philanthropic work. "Harvard is not likely to bother about the idle fancies of human brotherhood or the dignity of man." Yet it is the Harvard undergraduates who have for years supported the Prospect Union; who, under the watchword of "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity," have furnished an eager corps of instructors to hundreds of the artisan class who longed...
...gaining there. Most of Yale's gains were through the centre, partly through Butterworth's phenomenal rushing, and partly because her own centre was expert in opening a way. Yale's left side of the line with Beard and Hinkey was strong enough so that Pennsylvania did not bother it a great deal.

Back of the line Trafford's kicking and rushing were both good, and Cobb showed some improvement in his position...
...questions on the management become doubly prominent. And there arises, as a result of a remark attributed to a member of the Faculty, and also of what seems like perfectly good reason, the question, "Why do not the Faculty furnish blue books for the examinations?" Everyone has experienced the bother of having to bring blue books to classes before examinations. Especially is this felt if the books are not brought when asked for. Such occurrences oblige the students to make explanations to the instructors and so involve all concerned in more or lesstrouble. If the blue books were furnished...
