...object is a worthy one and we feel certain that it is only necessary that the attention of the men be called to it again to make the contributions to the hospital as numberous as ever. Few men read their papers after they leave the tables, and either carelessly stuff them into their pockets or throw them away. If they will put them in the box as they leave the Hall they will, with slight effort on their own part, be doing an acceptable favor to the Cambridge Hospital...

...they follow the paths of their so-called duty with a ghoulish glee that is positively sickening.

...scientific, up-hill game. They had little time to get into shape and were not as well up in some of the refinements of the game as Yale, but they played as strong a game as any previous Harvard eleven has ever done, and showed that they have the stuff in them out of which a first class eleven can be made. With another year's work, which more than half the men will get, there is no reason why we should not be able to defeat Yale and Princeton. One thing especially, the eleven showed to every...
