...Wednesday, the 13th inst., the Freshmen Eleven played their third match of the season, at Andover, against the Phillips Academy Eleven. The game was very close during the first "three-quarters," '82 getting one touch-down through good passing and a fine rush by Crehore. In the next "three-quarters," Crehore and Manning each secured two touch-downs; and from one of them a goal was kicked. Sedgwick kicked a goal from the field, thus making the score two goals and four touch-downs for '82, to nothing for Andover. The playing of Crehore, Manning, Sedgwick, and Williams...
...Harvard was beaten by Cornell, both Freshman and University, in 1875 and 1876, and in the Fresh man match of 1878. But her present crew has never been beaten.

There are a great many details in passing, and tricks in dodging, which the Princeton men have mastered, and which we trust our men have now learned. The match to-morrow will be well worth seeing; and we can only hope that...

LAST Tuesday the Freshman Foot-Ball team went out to Quincy to play a match with the team of the Adams Academy. Crehore won the toss for '82, and took the wind, giving Adams the kick-off. The ball was started about 3-20 by Woodward, but was soon sent back towards Adams's goal, where most of the play took place for some time. The Quincy boys then made a brace, but Leatherbee made a good rush for '82, and in a few minutes a touch-down was scored by Warren. The ball was then brought...
