...falling off in yesterday's practice from the good work of the eleven. The playing was loose, at times unusually so, although several of the men played a very good game. There was altogether too much off-side play by the first eleven, and the interferance did not seem to be strong enough as time after time the second eleven backs broke through and tackled the 'varsity backs before they got fairly started. The interferers simply pushed a man aside when they could just as well have knocked him down...
...first Harvard-Yale game was played at Worcester in 1868. Reference to the scores given below will show how ill perfected the game was at that time, for scores which would today seem very large were then the rule rather than the exception.

A little careful observation by students might lead to some definite evidence, and if such evidence can be found it ought not to be withheld. There is, however, another possible explanation of this disappearance of property...
...term is eight weeks and vacation, all told, amounts to six months, each year, a course at Oxford need not be a very severe "grind" to a man rather inclined to take things easy. There is one restriction, however, put upon the freedom of the students, which perhaps may seem strange and amusing to the students of Harvard, where every student is almost completely his own master...
