...glad to see that arrangements have been undertaken for a foot ball dinner by the same committee, practically as officiated last year. The brilliant success of that affair after a defeat augurs well for this dinner of congratulation. Those who intend to go can and should help the committee by signing without delay. Judging from the enthusiasm of the college and the certainty of interesting and stirring exercises, the chief difficulty will be in getting a dining hall large enough for the crowd...

...signal was given for B. Morison to try the right end, Yale's favorite play. It was a success; aided by some remarkable interference Morrison covered 35 yards, before he was forced out. This looked dubious for Harvard, but it was the last long gain around the end made by Yale during the afternoon. Yale kept the ball for a considerable time now and managed to force it forty yards into Harvard's territory before compelled to kick. Then B. Morison sent the ball sailing down on the wind, and Trafford was allowed a fair catch on Harvard's five...
