...Ramblers showed that they have become accustomed to the six-man style of play, Bigelow and Snelling especially finding more freedom in starting charges. Queens men found the speed of their opponents too taking and in the second period lagged noticeably, so that single-man attacks were the result. Owen and Stillman were successful in stopping these, however. Both teams seemed out of condition, to which can be accounted their lack of spirit.

Again, verse of a higher quality ought to be procurable in a college as well provided with poets as Harvard. This issue of the magazine is above all, lacking in stories of compelling interest, although "Chowder" is an approach to what might be done in this direction...
