When, however, the President turns from the present to the future, when he ends his description of the abuses and commences his recommendation of remedies, the great body of students will falter in foilowing him. The President names a number of possible remedies, and probably does not intend that all should be applied at once. Exactly what remedies, however, he would have applied first are not specified and therefore all the remedies are presented as equally imminent. Some of these measures have much in them that will recommend them to the students, but, on the other hand, there...
...there be never a falter. Harvard is fighting against odds, and a glorious fight it is. No Harvard man worthy the name, will be disheartened because of defeat, or will slacken in his support of the eleven. Another game remains to be played this year,- to lose which would be profoundly disastrous, to gain which by a good score would be greatly encouraging.

Emmons was injured, though...
About an hour and a half later Baker was ready to run the quarter. He got an excellent start, and settled to his work in magnificent style. About half way he seemed to falter and have trouble with one of his shoes, but kicking it loose, he pluckily continued as swiftly as ever. Running upwards of 200 yards with but one shoe makes his record of 47 3-4 seconds all the more marvelous. 47 3-4 seconds breaks the previous world's amateur record of 48 3 5 seconds, made by Myers, at Birmingham, England, in 1881. It also...
