...suited at Memorial almost as well as anywhere else, certainly in Cambridge. The order list is complete, and, what is an important consideration to so many, the prices are reasonably low. We can. I think. safely say that as good board for the money can not be got elsewhere in Cambridge...

...chose the west end of the grounds. Neither side was favored by the wind. as the slight breeze was of no consequence in affecting the play. The first point was gained from a touchdown by Hurd. from which Bemis kicked a goal. Sharp play by our men then got the ball down to the Tufts' 20 yard line, when Phillips rushed it over the line in fine form, and secured a second touchdown. from which Bemis kicked another beautiful goal. After a short time spent in scrimmages near the centre of the field Simpkins was hurt and forced to retire...

...down on the 5-yard line directly in front of their opponents' goal, when it was unluckily passed ahead and thus feel into the hands of Tufts. Bemis soon afterwards secured it, and made a very close try for a goal from the field, barely missing the posts Homaus got injured at this point and his place was takne by Simpkins.

Within a short time Tufts made a touch...

Their weak points were passing and picking up the ball, but in other respects their team was a strong one as is shown from the fact that they beat the Ottawa City team and played...

...points of special interest in the game. The score stood at the end 29 points to 0 in our favor. Kimball kicked a goal from the field, four touchdowns were made, from three of which goals were kicked, and Dartmouth made one safety. Our rush line tackled well and got down on the ball together. Finney and Hurd rushed finely while Phillips played a steady, reliable game throughout. Kimball made several pretty runs and dodged very well, while Peabody tackled splendidly. The halfbacks were, however, lamentably weak in kicking, apparently using very little head word. The centre rush should snap...
