...Yale freshmen did not play a good game on the whole. Their blocking was bad and their tackling very high, and there seemed a roughness and uncertainty among the rushers which prevented most of their tricks from working well. Our freshmen played a strong hard game, though not a very scientific one. They blocked well, and the way they broke through the Yale rush-line was perfectly delightful to watch. And when they had got through, there was no standing round looking on. The nearest man to the Yale player who had the ball would seize him and throw...
...appeal published a couple of days ago asking the law students to attend chapel cannot receive too high a recommendation, Now that chapel is voluntary there is no reason whatever why the service should not be made general, why every member of the University should not be expected to attend as any member of the college.

It is to be hoped that as many men as possible will hear him, since hardly too high praise can be given such telling words as his. Something is needed to stir many men from their lethargy of thought and few speakers are so well fitted to accomplish just such work as Mr. Moody. An additional effort should be made to bring more men into personal contact with...
