...come to the officers of the Harvard Glee Club that the two clubs cooperate and give a concert together. The Pennsylvania men propose that in the event of such a concert being given the Harvard club shall go down to Philadelphia later in the year and give a similar concert there.

For many years he has been referee at the annual Yale-Princeton games, and his reputation is such that his decisions are everywhere held to be above dispute. The perfect familiarity with the details of play which this implies...
