Comnock, of Lowell, is trying for the University team and is playing a strong game. Fitzhugh, from the Groton Academy, is a strong man and ought to make a good halfback. Crosby, from Cutler's School in New York, showed up well in practice yesterday, as end rush, as did Thomas at halfback. The other candidates are as follows : Barlow, Burnett, Tudor, Baldwin and Morrison...
...played a plucky up-hill game, but were outplayed at every point by the University eleven. Harvard won the toss and took the ball, leaving the choice of field to the home team. At 3. 15 game was called with Harvard in possession of the ball at the south end of the grounds. Morse dribbled to Harding, after a short run passed to Porter, who in his turn gave the sphere to Higginson, who was, however, soon downed. Soon after this Holden made a run of thirty yards which brought him to the Tuft's five yard line. Three minutes...
...their new plan. The experiment is one that has been well and successfully tested in several communities of Europe and there is every reason to believe that it will succeed at Harvard.

The management has enlarged the force of attendants considerably, so that the great number of customers are quickly and well served.

...several respects to that of last season. In the first place two of the best men in the rush line have gone. There seems to be no available material to fill the vacancies. Robinson, '89, is a good man, but he cannot fill Captain Corwin's shoes as end rush, nor can either Pratt, '88, or Cross, '88, do the work done by Buchanan last season. The rush line will therefore be weaker than last year, and rather lighter. It is doubtful if it will average 165 pounds whereas it ought to average at least ten pounds heavier. Wallace...
