Interest in the sport is even more accentuated this fall by the desire of all to wish success to Coach Fisher and his corps of young assistants. In recent years Harvard football has been associated with the Haughton system, the combination of which meant a winning team. Even in 1916, when Mr. Haughton had little personal connection, the method of coaching was still given his name. But now everything is new. A different organization must be established. That means that every undergraduate must more than over do his share to help the team along. The old Harvard spirit, largely forgotten...
...recent numbers of the Harvard Magazine. That sort of thing calls for a facile pen and wit of a high order. Mr. Mister gives promise of cultivating or acquiring these by dint of much practice. Although he is far from expert now, his work shows much promise, and even a poor attempt is better than none. Such parodies do much toward stimulating a healthy rivalry, in the same way that Zeppelin raids during the war were almost invariably followed by a rush to the colors...

Let us ask ourselves whether these ideals still persist and whether the poets think that there is any measurable progress towards their attainment...

Men whose ball playing had been scarcely of the "corner lot" variety for the first two months, came back in championship form. By winning the Princeton series and shutting out Boston College, Captain McLeod...
...following spring. Last year, when the team put up the best fight of the season at New Haven, it came to light that the Harvard nine works better at Yale than here. Felton will face a difficult task this afternoon, but his record shows that he pitches even better in hostile territory than at Cambridge. In the deciding contest with Princeton, in which the Orange and Black cheering section was on its feet shouting continuously for the last three innings, he allowed but three hits. Today, even with stronger opposition from the lusty throats of Yale graduates, there...
