Tomorrow the football team leaves here to play the last and the hardest game of the season. In September the football experts all over the country were unanimous in pronouncing it Harvard's "off year." The team has been beaten twice in the nine games played so far, but no one can say that a year has seen the defeat of both Cornell and Princeton has been a failure. A victory over Yale on Saturday is all that is needed to make this season as successful as those of recent years and though we are to face an unusually strong...
Only a week after its hard-earned victory over the University. Tufts went to Princeton and gave the Nassau eleven the hardest game of the season. Considering Tufts' strong team, the Princeton victory, by the score of 8 to 0, indicated a large amount of latent power in the winning team, even though it could not cross the Tufts goal line.

Although Tufts has defeated Springfield, Trinity and Holy Cross on the home field, the games in the opponents' territory will be severely contested. The first of the three has been going well all season, and has a fine collection of hitters. Holy Cross, too, has been playing recently better than ever, and with Donnellan, the former Medford High twirler, on the mound, will prove a hard proposition to down. Trinity should be disposed of with little difficulty, and Yale...
