When we say that the newspaper statements have been, as usual, sensational and incorrect, we certainly do not mean that we are satisfied with the result of the game. We do not like to dispute the result of a game, and we don't do it often; but in this case we feel we must, in duty to the college, protest in Harvard's name against the referees decisions on Thanksgiving Day.

...foul tackling. Brooks took his place and did very good work.

Perhaps to get the advantages of Harvard, a student may need to spend largely but a certain circumstance enables him to do so,- I mean the matchless benevolence of those who have preceded us here. The great sums interested to us for distribution in prizes, loan funds and scholarships make it possible for our students to offset the cost of their education to such a degree that the not output of a poor...
