...ideas of architectural beauty should have been perpetuated in some of our least attractive structures. An intense absorption in the engrossing problems of education on the part of the governing authorities must be responsible for the uneven development of the University grounds. Why the power plant was allowed to drop down in the midst of the general scheme, and why Gore Hall was countenanced, are questions that we cannot answer, but are object lessons from which we may well benefit in the future...
...distinctly the individual star, not on account of his running with the ball, but due entirely to his punting and drop-kicking. He scored once, in the first half, from the 29-yard line at an angle, while in the second half he sent the ball over the cross-bar from Harvard's 32-yard line.

He was almost invariably the first man down under a punt, though Coy was out-punting his ends between...

A number of kick-offs and a little punting practice were held, and O'Flaherty tried several drop-kicks before the teams lined up for signal drill. Both the first team and substitutes were sent through signal practice for a short while and then were sent inside...
