Objectivity is not necessarily material. But if we err on this point, we are willing to be corrected, in fact stand in need of correction...
...first point was a glaring defiance to all rule and precedent, to the rulings of Fiske, Camp and all other referees for three years past; the second was a vast piece of carelessness, if nothing worse, and was the subject of comment everywhere on the field where it occurred. We believe that these decisions lost us a game, won by superior team play. We believe that there is ground for winning a protest if properly presented.

The ball was punted over to Yale but Bull returned it, and Woodman and Boyden gained some ground by rushed, in which Sears took part. At this point, Cumnock was disqualified and Appleton took his place. Boyden now made the finest run of the game, but on the next down Harvard fumbled and Yale got possession of the bail. Bull punted and Porter tried for a fair catch. He was prevented and a claim of interference was allowed, this...
