...further agreed that as many Cambridge teachers shall be admitted without charge to a course in Harvard University or Radcliffe College each year as there are students teaching in the schools of Cambridge, as long as this agreement remains in force. The teachers who are entitled to avail themselves of this privilege will be appointed by the superintendent of schools of Cambridge. The course or courses to which these teachers may be admitted are either those given during term time or in the Summer School...
...were given a day's rest yesterday, and Burden directed the practice from the side-lines. Boal appeared in football clothes, but did not take part in the practice. Reid, Parker, Gierasch and Fincke were all in the line-up. The centre of the line was unexpectedly weak.

Richardson gained forty-five yards around Hallowell before he was downed by Ellis. After more punting, Harvard obtained possession of the ball, and, by vigorous plunges at centre advanced it until Ellis finally carried it across...
Undergraduate management of debating teams is almost impossible because, in the first place, nearly every team has on it one or more law or divinity school men, since it takes that long to develop 'varsity debaters, and in the second place there can seldom be found among the undergraduates a man able to maintain the control necessary to produce harmony under his coaching...
