EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON.-There seems to be a lack of enthusiasm this year, in the members of Memorial, as regards foot ball contests between different tables. As it has been said several good players have shown themselves in past games and developed into fair candidates for the eleven. Why would it not be an excellent plan to have games between the dormitories ? Hollis and Stoughton would certainly be about equally matched, or nearly so. Then let Hollis and Stoughton set the ball a rolling by having a foot ball game right away. And it might be added that no knowledge...
...CRIMSON, in its article on the team at the beginning of the season, claimed that we had this year promise of a better team than for some time past, but that there was no use in thinking for a moment of facing Yale or Painceton, unless our radical fault was overcome-high tackling. High tackling lost us the game Saturday, and high tackling will continne to lose us every game we play against a good team. Why it is that a player of average brains cannot learn in six weeks to takle low, when he knows that he would thereby...

Prospect Park, Brooklyn, has now the largest tennis ground of the country. During the past summer, 160 courts were laid out and 250 permits were granted to clubs and parties who wished to play. These permits are granted to any respectable person applying for them, the players supplying the implements of the game except in some cases, the net. Lockers are provided for both ladies and gentlemen in the picture house, and no charge is made for using them...
...fourth run took place yesterday afternoon. The hares, Blodgett, '87 and E. C. Webster, '87, started at 20 minutes past three. The hounds, led by Brandt, '85, master of hounds, were 19 in number, and started 4 minutes later. The course lay through Norton's woods, across North Avenue, North Cambridge and then towards Mt. Auburn. The paper scent was lost in several places. The chase led across the bridge into Brighton, where, darkness coming on, the hounds could not find the scent and by mutual consent broke for home. The hounds came in 31 minntes after the hares...
