...present time the University has in it one of the greatest runners the world has ever known, in Alfred Shrubb. It is without doubt the opportunity of a lifetime for a man who wishes to know how to run long distances to come out, and to learn without injury to himself. It is appalling in a University of 2071 eligible men, with this opportunity starting them in the face, that only twenty men are out running under his careful direction. If a man has never run, it is the time for him to try, for no one knows what...
...last and exciting game the University football team defeated Williams Saturday afternoon by the score of 10 to 0. At no time during the game was the victory in doubt, and twice the University team lost good opportunities to score. Burr's goal from placement on Williams's 43-yard line was the feature of the game, and his punting gave Harvard a constant advantage throughout the game.

Such a suspicion would be of the greatest injury to our prosperity, for it would take away the dignity of our highest judicial body, and it would attach three fundamental powers of the courts given them...
...Class Day as a victory the day before. It not only affords considerable material for conversation, but to a loyal graduate and undergraduate body it means everything. The victory was clean cut and well earned in spite of Yale's frequent misplays. There was not the slightest doubt as to the merits of the two teams after the first inning and although the University team was outbatted by one hit, most of Harvard's hits came when they were needed and every opening to score was taken advantage...
