...University association football team played a tie game with the Everett Soccer Club on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon, each team scoring four points. Everett led at the end of the first half by the score of three to one; but in the second, the University team secured three goals by fast play and the individual work of Fish. F. R. Leland excelled for Harvard and R. McClay did the best work for Everett...
...Saturday afternoon the second University crew defeated the third and fourth crews in a fast and exciting race on the Charles River. At the finish the second boat led the third by something less than half a length; the fourth boat was over a length behind the third. The time made was excellent, the course of nearly one and seven-eighths miles being covered in 9 minutes, 12 seconds. The record for the course is 9 minutes, 19 seconds; but as the crews on Saturday started a block nearer the finish than the full course requires, the time cannot...
...room perhaps in Perkins or Walter Hastings, both of which are attractively described in the booklet on college rooms. When he arrives at Cambridge and is settled in his room, he finds that his neighbors are Law School men, graduate students, and a few upperclassmen, and that he is half a mile away from the centre of undergraduate life on Mt.

This alone is a serious handicap to the Westerner who enters without friends; moreover...
Experience has justified this belief. Yesterday Professor Zueblin lectured before an audience that completely filled the ground floor of the New Lecture Hall and overflowed into the gallery. One-half the seats were filled by elderly persons whose connection with Harvard is no more than geographical, the other half-the less desirable half-by members of the University Ior whom the lectures were arranged. It would be well for the Ethical Society and the committee of professors responsible to awake to the fact that Harvard is taking an interest in what Professor Zueblin has to say, and would appreciate...
...Harvard Dramatic Club, however, will not only prove an opportunity for ability in acting, but in writing as well. It is the plan to devote at least half the year to the production of plays written by the undergraduates themselves. It is needless to dilate upon the splendid chance this offers to those interested in dramatic composition. It is hoped that Professor Baker's course in "The Technique of the Drama," to be given next year, will supply a large share of this material...
