...cheering on both sides of the field was an interesting contrast to that of Saturday. Everybody must have felt a new feelling of affection for the University and a new confidence in Harvard's ability to win, as the ball was taken repeatedly down the field by the same sort of sharp, determined play with which Yale beat us Saturday.

...front who had voice enough to make himself heard or personality enough to command respect. This year the enthusiasm which is being stored up here every day will break out in great confusion on the day of the game unless there are capable men to keep it in some sort of order. The men chosen to lead the cheering should be men with good voices whose records here at college have shown them to possess the qualities of natural leadership.

...plan for raising an endowment fund of a quarter of a million dollars, with the hope that when it should be offered to the Corporation of Harvard College a union of some sort would be effected, has not yet had a definite result, the contributions so far falling short of the sum contemplated...
