...weak spot in the line. During the defensive work for the first eleven, which formed the principal portion of the day's work, it was through him that the gains were made. Swain at times was outplayed by Peyton. The centre of the line was strengthened by the return of Sargent, and the second could make no impression on it.

Stillman, who will undoubtedly fill the other tackle, played in both the Harvard and Princeton games last year...
...soldiers engaged in the Philippines could easily spare some of the enthusiasm of their receptions on their return home if the people of the United States would do a little toward enlivening their existence when they are on the other side of the world. Experience in the civil war demonstrated that homesickness is not a disorder belonging to the nursery age.
