...shoes entirely unfitted for the slippery floor and upraised corners. P. Newton '11, the first runner for the University team, slipped at the start, and Bodley took the pole and held it to the finish, winning from Newton by about 5 yards. H. P. Lawless '13 ran against Paull, of Pennsylvania, the holder of the intercollegiate record for the mile. Lawless made up the distance and gave H. M. Warren '13, the third runner for the University team, enough lead to get the pole. Warren, and Church, the third man for Pennsylvania, ran very evenly, but Warren...

Next morning the lion's tracks were discovered only four feet from the entrance...
...Saturday the All-Stars defeated an All-Southern team by the score of 5 to 0. The score was made by Williams, who ran 20 yards for a touchdown after receiving a forward pass from Galatti.

The southerners just missed scoring a safety when Marre tackled Dewey after the kick-off on his two-yard line. The All-Stars punted out of danger, however...
