...count of scores was kept in yesterday's grind. The various plays in the Crimson repertoire were run off and Coach Horween called the ball back regularly in order to analyze the carrying out of assignments and to give individual instruction.

The Harvard mentor gave out two new plays which were tested in skeleton drill and then under actual fire...

The average student who wearily wends his way through lines of registration desks, CRIMSON and Lampoon agents, laundry or pressing solicitors, is prone to overlook the full significance of the cash contribution or pledge filled out in impatient anticipation of escaping the toils of enrolment...
