...rolled it out behind him. It was seized by a Wesleyan who had been waiting and he tossed it back to another one behind him. This man kicked the ball with all his might far up among the Princeton men. All hands flashed away after it. A Princeton man got it, picked it up, and endeavored to run with it. A Wesleyan seized the Princetonian and yanked him off his feet. The next moment the man in orange and black had turned two somersaults, was lying on the ground, and four Wesleyans were walking all over...
...Yale criticism upon the recent Yale-Rutgers game, in which Yale made 97 points to 0, says: "The Yale men showed themselves strong in passing, the rushers held well and got through quickly, the kicking was in general very good, and some fine runs were made.

In the second three-quarters Williams played a stronger game, but seemed rather disheartened by the large score that was piling up against them. The ball began to approach our territory, when Codman secured it and carried it almost the whole length...
...took place. The hares, Mr. Strong, '85, and Mr. Ayer, '87, started at 3.41 from the steps of Matthews. The hounds, with Walker. '84, as Master, started 8 minutes after. The course was a good one and lay up Brattle street, around Fresh pond and then home. The hares got back in about an hour, after going some six miles. The first hound was Fish, '86, coming in 16m. 52 1-2s. behind the hares, who thus win first prizes. Fish, who gets second prize, was followed by Jack, '84, Walker, '84, and Brandt, '85. The hares...
