...work lies outside the field of formal debating. Rather than ponder subjects of international policy or political significance, the club would do well to discuss subjects of college importance. Such a program would help in forming an intelligent public opinion and it would bring out those men who can get up on their feet and talk sound sense in a convincing way without preparation...
...same complaint as in former years is beginning to be heard in connection with the dormitory crews. It seems an impossible feat to get the men in the various crews to report regularly and give an opportunity for the crew to get together so that a creditable showing can be made when the bumping races are held.

Nourse recovered Cutler's forward pass which Crowley was unable to get. Harvard was penalized fifteen yards for holding, and on the next play Cobb caught Cutler's onside kick on Bates' 16-yard line. Bates punted to Cutler, and Burr's forward pass netted twenty yards. Cutler fumbled Kearney's punt on Harvard's 20-yard line, and the ball...
