...professor at Gottingen, Schneidenin, in the preface to an edition of Hyperides, thus alludes in 1853 to his two recent pupils, Lane and Gilder-sleeve: 'Vivorum juverum et candore animi praecellentium et ad ornandas in illo orbe litteras antiquitatis vatorum."

Several long strides in advance have been made. No permanent injuries have been received. The team plays better on the offensive than have most past Harvard teams. The defense has been unusually strong. In short it must be remembered that notwithstanding Saturday's failure, the old conditions were reversed. For the first time...
