EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - To tell the all absorbing thought in the mind of the Princeton undergraduate at present, suffice it to say that last Saturday afternoon saw their foot-ball teams leave on one train to play in divers places. Three victories were scored: the 'varsity beat University of Pennsylvania, 59 to 9, the sophomores made 15 points to Chester's 0, and the freshmen won from the Lafayette freshmen by 18 to 0. The 'varsity has played four games and in no two of them have the same team played. The second Stevens game was especially disastrous, both...
...students who were out on Jarvis Field Saturday afternoon saw Harvard defeat Stevens by a score of forty-four points to nothing; but they also saw more than that.

It has the representation of being an exceptionally fast track, but in spite of the broken records yesterday, it was in poor condition. The rain had formed a thin layer of mud on the top, and even when this was scraped off, the track was dead and without its usual spring. To make the record beyond dispute, four well known...
According to the much praised report of the Princeton-Yale game in our esteemed contemporary, the Yale News, "the fourth inning saw a change," "the next inning saw Yale retire," "the next inning saw three more runs," and "the eighth inning saw Yale again blanked." All these innings had reserved seats on the fence from which salient point they got this very accurate view of the game...
