...Harvard had the west end of the field and the kick off. Woodman led off with a run which did not last very long and Faulkner followed it with another, but the ball was lost to Wesleyan.

This was encouraging, and the delight of the graduates increased when Woodman kicked a goal...

...effect is truly startling. Long, long years have passed since these gay folk lived and loved and fought and made merry in the old Palatinate. Havoc and desolation have swept the city time and again since then. They had their day and went to rest; and their bones have long since dropped quietly to dust. Yet some weird spell has called them from the grave. Here they are once more, riding through these same streets, with the same trappings, the same armor, the same music and, in the case of historical personages, almost the same features. Professor Jacob Mycillus goes...
