...times of late years we have thought that we had it mastered, and each time Yale has sent us back to Cambridge to study it some more. But we have stuck to the task with a dogged perseverance, and the 15,000 people who saw Harvard defeat Yale at Hampden Park Saturday, must admit that we have now learned the game thoroughly. Harvard met the strongest team Yale ever put in the field, and fairly outplayed it. It was a hard fought game from beginning to end. Nothing more admirable has ever been seen on the football field, than...
...sufficient crowd, there will be three sections, and if not there will be two. They will leave five minutes after each other. Springfield will be reached at 12.20.

It was necessary to have tickets for sale at New York, at Boston, and at Springfield...
Harvard had no trouble yesterday afternoon on Hampden Park, Spring-field, in running up 64 points against the Amherst team. Two half-hours were played. The grounds were in excellent condition despite the rain of the previous day. Heffelfinger, Williams and Harvey, of the Yale eleven, witnessed the game, but there were not more than a couple of hundred spectators altogether...
