...Deutscher Verein will produce this year at its annual performance a comedy by Gustav von Moser, entitled "Der Veilchenfresser." It will be necessary to make a few slight alterations in the play before it can be acted, but the piece will remain substantially as it was originally written. The parts will be assigned before the mid-years, and rehearsing will begin directly after the examinations. There will be one public performance in Cambridge, at Brattle Hall on April 2, and one in Boston at Union Hall on April...
Proposals have been received from New York University and the University of Pennsylvania for dual gymnastic competitions to be held this winter. As the interest in this branch of sport has become very slight, no effort can be made to form an organized team unless enough men come out to ensure competition for the various places.

...class football championship series yesterday afternoon by the score of 6 to 0. The Seniors, although somewhat lighter than the Juniors, played a very aggressive game and made substantial gains by end runs and trick plays. Aside from superiority in this style of play, their advantage was very slight. The touchdown was made after a quarterback kick from the thirty yard line, and two line plunges by Locke...
...Yale eleven will play Princeton this afternoon on the University Field at Princeton. A comparison of the season's play seems to indicate a slight but definite advantage for Yale in the game. The Yale goal-line has been crossed three times by inferior teams, while Princeton has only allowed one field-goal, but in general defensive work Yale outclasses Princeton. No eleven has made consistent gains through the Yale line. Dewitt's kicking is superior to Bowman's, but this advantage for Princeton is likely to be more than counterbalanced by the effectiveness of Yale's running attack...
