There will be ten events between the three teams eight on the track and two field events. The list includes a 40-yard dash, 45-yard high hurdles, 300-yard run, 600-yard run, 1,00-yard run, one mile run, two mile run, 390-yard relay, shot put and high jump. The relay over the short distance promises to be one of the feature events of the evening. The Dartmouth quartet defeated Princeton at the B. A. A. games last Saturday in 3.09 1-5. This time was bettered by 1 1-5 seconds by the University four running...

Even if the small college players are not injured, they are pretty well exhausted by the time the last quarter comes around and several fresh substitutes are often enough to batter their defence...
...with British influence, I have not yet been jostled by a young American rushing to the colors to defend other people's interests. If only our older compatriots, weak of loins but mighty of mouth and pen, could be induced to go to the front and put their noble words into action, I think the rest of us would get along, quite well, and be content to mind our own American business. Nobody seems to know exactly what the flags in front of University Hall mean, but if they mean that the young men of Harvard are thirsting for anyone...
