...neglected. Yesterday a notice was inserted in the CRIMSON urging "every man in college who has ever played foot ball or who is at all interested in it," to attend the daily practice and to urge others to do the same.

...contest, nor will he be recommended for a degree. "He may be required to put himself under the direction of a private tutor approved by the dean, or to report daily to a college officer, or to do both."
