...impossible almost to judge of the playing of the Harvard men against a team so much inferior, but it was easy to see that the men did not exert themselves to the utmost. Holt did not do his best, in fact he has not played up to his limit lately. He is very much inclined to shirk...

...costuming and staging was very good but the dialogue was inferior. The songs and the musical selections and the mechanical features, however, combined to make the performance fairly acceptable, while the clever work of several members of the cast, notably Frank Butterworth, the football player, and H.

While the result was not what Princeton had hoped for, every one who heard the debate was satisfied that the decision of the judges was eminently just. The arguments advanced...
