...effectually ended the game, and so we were invited to glance at Tufts. We were drawn to the window, and bade to glance toward Cambridge. The view was very fine, but was soon obstructed by the re-appearance of our athletic friends. We were surprised at the smile of pride that covered the face of our friend as he cried, "Ah, the Eleven!" He told us that the foot-ball interests of Tufts were "screaming," as he said, and that they bade fair to swallow up the other sports in the same manner as they had been themselves swallowed...
...writer, having established his point, goes on with pardonable pride and recounts at great length the eminent men connected with the august assembly to which he himself belongs. This will undoubtedly be very interesting reading for our subscribers, but we confess that we fail to see exactly what bearing this list of notables has upon the subject under discussion. We do not think the facts affect the position of the CRIMSON.

Snodkins points to these with the pride of an old soldier who shows his empty sleeve and tails of the battles he has been through. Our attention is next called to a strange device over the fire-place-a row of four cards, the ace of hearts, eight of clubs, 8 to spades and five of diamonds...
...unfavorable weather with which our foot ball teams are now favored brings to mind the fall of '82, when we met with a similar hindrance from a somewhat too previous snow storm. Many a junior recalls with pride the alacrity with which be, then a mere freshman, stepped forward and lent his and to the good work of relieving Holmes Field of its unwelcome coverlet. Many a junior, too, will remember the sudden increase in alacrity with which he surrendered his shovel to some new comer and silently became absent from the cold field after a mauvaise quarts' hear...
