Although any forecast of the ultimate strength of the teams which Harvard must face this year is at this time bound to be premature, it is interesting, nevertheless, to survey the outcome of these opponents in their initial contests and to remark the significant points. Last year Harvard's opponents were uniformly successful in the corresponding opening games; this year, however, there were two reverses. The Massachusetts Agricultural College eleven, which the University team meets next Saturday succumbed to Dartmouth's more aggressive and cleaner playing to the score of 13 to 0. M. A. C. was constantly incurring penalties...
...clock--at least some little time before many fellows turn in. A saunter through the Yard any night at 11.30 o'clock will show that dozens of fellows are still lucubrating, though as the temperature declines, the habit will be decreasing in popularity. It ought hardly be necessary to remark that according to the College Catalogue, steam heat is included in the price.

It would be just as unnecessary to compare them in point of beauty. The only remark pertinent at this time is to express the gratitude of all patrons of Soldiers Field, no less sincere because not formally expressed, and to assure Mr. Anderson of a permanent place in our minds along with other givers of good things for Harvard...
...only last July that Dr. Moynihan, president of the surgical division of the British Medical Association, was referring to the late Dr. R. H. Fitz as "that incomparable clinician." The remark denotes a reputation that was international. And deservedly so. In their general outline, the scientific achievements of Dr. Fitz are fairly well known. He gave its name to the disorder we now know as "appendicitis," and, so to say, brought the fight against it into the open...
