...Norton's field yesterday afternoon the seniors beat the juniors by a score of 10 to 0. The seniors had the heavier team and used their rush line to very good effect. The junior's backs played well, but they were not well supported by the rush line which let the '91 men get through. The umpire was not at all strict in regard to off-side play on either side, but his decisions seemed to result more disastrously...

...well into Harvard's territory. But at such times the line never failed to force their opponents back. Upton, Cranston, Newell and Hallowell all did good, steady work; Upton did some of the prettiest tackling seen on the field this year, and both he and Newell rushed with telling effect.

...America, is a broad, generous and leisurely liberal education for its young men preparing for active life. To lower the standard of liberal culture, and above all for the movement for its reduction to come from those bodies which should be its friends, would be deplorable in its moral effect throughoutthe community. Besides undoing much of the best work of the past twenty-five years at Cambridge in building up the more advanced study and teaching of the junior and senior years, it would inevitably, and we think correctly be regarded as an abdication by Harvard of the leading position...
