...Transcript which was printed this morning in the HERALD-CRIMSON, praises '80s window in Memorial as highly a even an '80 man could desire, but the writer seems to suppose that a mistake was made in setting the window. He says that Mr. LaFarge intended that Virgil should look toward Homer, but that the artist's design has been "sadly thwarted," and the fault when once pointed out lets us see and think of nothing else. I should like to say that the window was put in position by Mr. LaFarge's own men, and that Mr. LaFarge himself...
...Baldwin used the body-check effectively. As a whole the team failed to catch and pass as well as we hoped, and the defence fielders did not cover their men closely. On the other hand our team played a harder and sharper game than ever before, and we look to see them do good work for the Oelrichs cup. Tomorrow we shall give a more particular account of the faults and merits of the players, collectively and individually, in the hope that they may greatly improve by next Saturday...
...compared with the playing of the eleven. We should in fact, be only too happy to see our eleven victorious this year clad in all the colors of the rainbow, still it seems only fair to the subscribers to the foot-ball team that they should have a decent looking eleven to show their friends as the one representing Harvard, when they take them to see a game. Of course in the present unsettled condition of the eleven this is impossible and in the matches which are played now, we expect to see a team on the field, every...
...charming. The fault which some people have found with the '60 window, of its admitting too little light, cannot here apply. It is pale in tone compared to the window just named, and lets in as much light as the weak casement at its side. It is a cool-looking window and pleasant to look at in the hot summer days. The light passing through its pale green hues seems to bring a suggestion of cool green waters, transparent and flecked with foam. Mr. Lafarge is here at his best...
Virgil is represented as a young man, beautiful, poetic and graceful in pose and face. He stands, his hand upon his hip, turned half away, his head slightly thrown backward. The artist has made the Latin poet to look behind him toward the great singer of Greece, as if asking for sympathy from the shadows of the past: a poetic conceit, but one which has been sadly thwarted by those in charge of placing the windows. According to Mr. Lafarge's design, the figures should turn slightly toward each other, the younger poet as if appealing to his great predecessor...
