Play began at 2.47 o'clock, Harvard having the ball and the east goal. Harding rushed, and aided by good blocking and clever dodging on his own part, carried the ball twenty yards; short rushes by Goldthwaite, Lee, Blanchard, and Harding again, carried the ball well down towards Wesleyan's goal line, but here Harvard lost the ball for holding in the line.

...played, played. In the first half '91 had the ball most of the time and by hard work often forced it near '80's geal, only to have it sent down the field again by one of Crane's long kicks. Ninety-one gained her ground by shoves and short breaks through the rush line, while '90 made quick work in running around the ends and long klcks. In the second half '90 did most of the playing, but '91 played the same plucky game, though she had hard luck...

...Smith of Trinity Church, Boston, conducted a short Episcopal service in the rooms of the St. Paul's Society last evening. Rev. Mr. Smith did not choose a text for his sermon but spoke on the qualities of a true gentleman. He said that the Episcopal clrurch had been accused of being a church for gentlemen. He hoped that this was true, and that the members were all gentlemen in the true sense of the word. A gentleman must scorn everything dishonorable.
