...Harvard Club of Boston takes Symphony Hall for this evening, and for this reason there will be no accommodations for the general public...
...Brien '14, who won his "H" last fall, would make a formidable pair of ends. Inside the tackles, S. B. Pennock '15 and W. H. Trumbull, Jr., '15, guards, will probably find places, both of them being veterans of Freshman and varsity teams.

He will have a strong competition, however, in the person of Soucy, centre on the 1915 Freshman team.

The writers of this article must have appreciated that their statistics are slightly out-of-date. Fully double that number of men reported the past season; and this season was by no means remarkable. The large number of men that reported in 1895 was doubtless due to the fact that there was then no charge for fencing tuition...
