Professor James prefaced his lecture by an outline of the ground that the lecturer might cover co-operatively under the head of the subject, immortality. His address was a discussion and refutation of two objections; one questioning how in the absolute dependence upon the brain of spiritual life, as we know it here, there can be immortality; and the second relative to the incredible number of beings which we must believe to be immortal if immortality be true...

...work of the backs was strong and sure, excepting the inclination to start before the ball was snapped back. Though playing a good defensive game, White was injured before he had an opportunity to do much ground gaining. Kendall, who took his place, played a low, hard game and with but one exception never failed to gain his distance. Hawkins, who was substituted for Kendall in the last few minutes of the game, was given no chance to show his capabilities as a ground gainer.

...second 'Varsity eleven easily defeated Andover yesterday afternoon in two halves of 15 and 10 minutes, by the score of 18 to 0. The issue of the game was never in doubt and the second eleven seldom failed to make good gains. Although the ground was very slippery, the men succeeded in getting their plays off in clean shape, and Bull in particular distinguished himself by two 40 yard runs around the end. He was very strong on the defensive also, and broke up the interference well. Hoague and Wadsworth played their usual strong game. A. R. Sargent...
