Brooks at guard frequently misses easy shots but his covering and passing are good...
...prospects for a strong team this year are not encouraging, although four of last year's team-Captain I. S. Broun '08, E. S. Allen '09 and E. S. Currie '09 forwards and P. Brooks '09 guard-are still available. However, it will be very hard to fill the positions of centre and guard left vacant by the loss of H. V. Amberg '08 and ex-Captain E. L. Burnham '07.

Mr. R. J. Walsh's "The Death of Cleopatra" has gained a prize as a translation from Horace. Mr. Tinckom-Fernandez's "Odalisque," clear in thought, admirable in melody, worthily maintains the standard of "Advocate" verse...
...line. Apollonio gained five yards and Wendell made an onside kick to Alcott. Philbin tried right end but was thrown by Starr for no gain. A double pass, followed by a forward pass; put the ball on Harvard's 20-yard line. Brides then a gained two yards through guard, but Jones's forward pass went to Grant. Two yards were lost on Lockwood's fumble so Newhall kicked to Jones, who was downed in his tracks. Coy returned the kick to Newhall, who made a beautiful run of 20 yards through an open field. Lockwood gained five yards...
