...University football team will play its fourth game this season against Williams in the Stadium this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Last year Williams was defeated by the score of 18 to 0. This year their team is composed of heavy line men and a fast backfield. Williams defeated Middlebury a week ago by the large score of 56 to 0, and the hardest game the University team has played so far is expected...
...with Groton School at Groton. The team has had only a little over a week's practice and is consequently in a very unsettled condition, due also to the large number of candidates that have to be tried out before the best team can be chosen. Grobon has a fast team this year as usual, and has had much more time in which to organize it. They have won from the Freshman teams of the last two years, and are the favorites in today's game...
...first time in four years that Bates has failed to score. Corbett's sensational run from Harvard's 5-yard line the length of the field for the second touchdown was the feature of the game.

During the past summer the Germanic Museum has received a gift of $50,000 from Adolphus Busch of St. Louis toward the fund for the erection of a new museum, as the present building is fast becoming inadequate for the increasing number of gifts.

While abroad on leave of absence this year, Professor...
