...Junior practice. The playing in the line-up was hard, but was marred by fumbling and constant mistaking of signals. The tackling was good, and several times after a runner had broken through he was overtaken and downed. The men did not play together well, and very often the runner did not follow his interference at all. The Juniors will not play a game until they line up against the Seniors on Friday afternoon in the class series...
...exact location of every play may be determined. Below this is a board like the one that is now used at Soldiers Field, showing the number of downs, the number of yards to gain, and who is in possession of the ball. Announcements will also be made as often as possible of the names of the men carrying the ball, and by whom they are tackled. A small band has been engaged for the occasion, and the usual songs will be rehearsed. The glee club will also sing some selections. The Union will be open only to members...
...University Council will hold its first meeting for almost two years next Wednesday evening. The Council deals with matters which affect two or more of the Faculties, and in the nature of things does not come together often. The present meeting was called to arrange if possible a system of gowns and hoods for the Faculty, similar to the systems in use at Yale and many of the other colleges. The members of the Faculty wear gowns on Commencement and other formal occasions at Harvard as well as at other colleges, but they have no regular gown used...
...Birthday Poems of the Century," is the title of a small volume of rather obscure verse by Ernest Green Dodge 1G. The book abounds in striking phrases, with now and then an original thought, but throughout the first poems runs a note of artificiality that often hides altogether the idea of the author. This perhaps is responsible for the bewilderment of the reader who looks seriously for a purpose in the verses, for something more than an outre style of phrase or rhythm. In "The Twilight of the Race," for example, the elaborate simplicity in many places approaches the absurd...
Harvard's playing showed the best team work of this year. Every man got into the play, and the linemen were especially effective in helping the runners along. The backs kept their feet remarkably well and often dragged almost the entire Carlisle team with them several yards. The interference on end runs was effective, and was closely followed by the backs, but the excellent work of Carlisle's ends prevented long end gains. The interference which formed for Kernan's 50 yard run was the best this season. Harvard, however, had many faults which would have resulted seriously against...
