...second half was to a certain extent like the first. '87's heavy rush line carried the ball right down towards the seniors goal. Wiestling tried for a goal from the field. It was now '86's turn to brace, and brace they did with a vengeance. Up the field the ball went in spite of everything '87 could do, Burnett, Austin, and Woodbury making good rushes. In was now growing dark, and the '87 backs seemed to have great trouble in catching and kicking the ball. The ball was downed not far from '87's line, Woodbury tried...

EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - I should like to take exception to a few of the statements made in the protest against the amount of critical work required of the sophomore class, recently published in your columns. In the first place, to pass by the fact that a critical theme, requiring in its preparation far more time than the descriptive one so strongly advocated, is therefore less desirable to some students, I think that the writer's conception of the office of criticism is utterly erroneous.
