There is one other song, "Lantern of Love". You've probably heard it, but that doesn't matter. By the end of the first act you'll be humming it, whistling it, beating time to it. At the end of the second act you will hardly be able to wait until you reach the lobby to give your own special version of it. And when you go home (the play has threoacts), the left hind wheel of the trolley, which will be flat, will rhythmically impress that tune on your soul, if you have one, for ever and ever...
William J. Bingham, director of athletics at Harvard, had nothing to say, and Major F. W. Moore, Treasurer of the Athletic Association was silent. No Harvard men gave any support to Hubbard's charges. But the judges and referees who officiated at the games were soon heard from. W. R. Okeson of Lehigh, referee and field judge, testifies that the games "were just good, clean contests between a lot of fine, decent boys coached by gentlemen sportsmen." W. G. Crowell, umpire and referee, described them in almost exactly the same language and said that violations of the rules were...

...origin of college cheers may be traced to the boating contests of 25 years ago on Lake Quinsigamond between Harvard and Yale in the old-fashioned sixes The 'Rah! Rah! Rah!' was then first heard; that of Harvard rolled out with a full strong sound, while that of Yale was given sharply and defiantly. Although both cheers look the same in print, the similarity is more apparent than real. Anyone who has ever been present at an athletic contest between these rival universities will have readily observed the difference between the cheers...
...Having heard that Wynant D. Hubbard, a Harvard graduate, was writing an article for some magazine criticising the method of play of the Princeton football team, I wrote to him to ask him to withdraw his article and to the magazines which I understood might publish it, requesting them not to do so. I thought it might be useful to you to have copies of my letters, which I enclose. The first two concerns I wrote to replied that they should not think of publishing such an article; the third, which is to publish it, I did not hear about...
