...subsequent downs the Wesleyan centre rush made a decidedly questionable play and secured a touchdown from which Judd kicked a goal. Harvard now improved and by a remarkably fine rush by Cabot from the centre of the field scored a touchdown from which Austin kicked third goal. The rest of the game was played principally by the audience, who roamed about the field as inclination prompted them, interrupting friend and opponent alike. No further score was made and time was called with the ball in about the centre of the field...

...boat house by Messrs. Sexton and Perklns. It seems that the theory of the accident offered in Monday's HERALD-CRIMSON was a mistaken one, and more complete investigation shows that the structure was more insecure than the first account would indicate. The pile on which the structure rested had slipped from its original upright position and had gradually acquired a slant of some twenty degrees some time since. A knotch was cut in the side of the pile about three inches deep and in this an upright brace was fixed upon which the sleeper running back into the boat...

...clock, when the start was to be made, bicycles were seen coming from all sides towards University, and at a few minutes after five 23 members rode slowly out of the yard. The route lay through Mt. Auburn and Belmont to Arlington. Here the moon rose and the rest of the ride to Lexington was made very beautiful by the moonlight. At Lexington the club rode slowly through, round the common, and back to the Russell House, which, together with several private houses in Lexington was decorated with Chinese lanterns in honor of the club. Here, after a few minutes...

...from which they forced the ball well down the field. But the freshmen pressed them rapidly back, and soon Cowling kicked a goal from the field, making the first score for Harvard. Shortly afterward Fiske made a touchdown by sharp playing, and Willard kicked the second goal. The rest of the three quarters was rather uninteresting, marked by poor tackling by the freshmen, and a provoking waste of time by Adams. Time was called with the ball well inside the Quincy men's territory...

...college tennis courts have been growing worse every year. They are a little better now, after a summer of rest, but if they are used until late this autumn they will undoubtedly be worse next spring than ever before. Last year they were bad enough, and then we had more of them, and those now under the new track were the best of all. This is a poor lookout for those who expect to play tennis on college ground, and they are already beginning to grumble because the Tennis Association does not seem anxious to take measures to improve...
