...backs were even slower than usual in starting; they hit the line too high and with little impetus, while their formation of interference was as poor as that of several weeks ago. This was much in evidence, although in this instance it was not so much the fault of the backs as a failure on the part of the line men to block off, when Parker was forced to run 55 yards alone. He broke through the line clearly and eluded the full-back, but was caught and tackled beautifully by Gerrish Newell. Aside from this run and Dibblee...
...contend that English 30 and English 6 do not give full vent to the interest in debating which might easily be aroused.

The centre page well illustrates a real phase of Freshman life and some of the other sketches are creditable.

Several stray hits are scattered throughout the number and a wandering member of the University is welcomed back and his exploits rehearsed in a manner truly dazzling and wonderful, but scarcely appreciable by the college...
