...than to fit the climax to his character. With this climax still in view, he has brought in a period of ten years between the second and third acts, which even the long and rather tedious accounts at the beginning of the last act fall to bridge over. In spite of this break, however, the play still merits the highest praise for its subtlety of analysis, clearness of exposition and above all for the simplicity and directness of its method...

The tackles, Hale, Stillman, and Francis, have been improving steadily during the past few weeks, and, in the early games, were used a great deal to rush the ball. Hale was tried at centre this week in spite of his light weight. Yale has strong guards in Brown and Olcott. The latter has had comparatively little experience, but his efficiency has been greatly increased by the coaching of Hickok. Brown is in fine form, and at present is looked upon...
