...these societies or of the Bible or other discussion groups which originate here, that many a Harvard man develops his lightly accepted religious ideas into what is for him a true and satisfying religious life. It is through the joint efforts of these organizations that hundreds of Harvard men get that opportunity for and experience in social service work which makes them leaders in movements for social improvement.

There was no life in the team and O'Flaherty at quarterback failed to get the men on their toes. He was slow in driving the team, lacking the decisiveness which he showed in the Bowdoin game.

After two line plays, O'Flaherty tried a forward pass, but was tackled before he could get the ball away and fumbled, Keaney recovering the ball for Bates. The wing shift, a play planned to catch the opposing team unprepared, and draw in the end, failed to gain twice and Keaney punted to Corbett on Harvard's 30-yard line. Corbett ran back the punt 20 yards...
