Then the substitutes went in on both teams, and the team-work became lax. Wigglesworth made several long gains, and a few minutes later caught a punt on his own 40-yard line and ran for a touchdown.

...scheme of having one first started been an expedition to which everyone has gone, and which none have ever regretted going to. It is not a stiff affair and the only chance of its being so this year is that the members of 1909 are too uninterested and lax to go. It seems to me that this is a great mistake and a great pity; for the committee have done everything to make it attractive and want the whole class to be together at the most amusing entertainment of the Senior year.

...term; on his departure a successor was appointed, not elected; at the meetings of the committee some members almost made it a business to stay away, or if present took no active part in the affairs they were elected to transact. The Membership Committee this year was lax in performing the small amount of business its duties called for: five men not members of the Union were nominated for officers; the list of nominees was representative of a particular class of men and not of the University; the number of men required by the Constitution was not nominated...
