Sedgwick and Loney both touched the ball; Harvard claimed that Sedgwick had touched the ball down, but, as Loney held it on the ground after Sedgwick's hand had been taken off, the referee decided it a touch-down for Princeton, - a decision which created general dissatisfaction.

Such a course has just been arranged at Yale by the Linonia Society, the first lecture having already been delivered by Professor Sumner. At Yale, too, they complain of the want of just such a hall...
