Exhibiting a far more effective change in the line and a harder running backfield than was apparent against Holy Cross, the University eleven virtually whisked the Maine aggregation off the field Saturday, rolling up 41 points. Meeting a tartar in Holy Cross prevented Coach Fisher from sending in many substitutes; but against such a weak opposition as the Maine eleven offered, he threw in practically the entire squad, 34 players participating in the fray. At no time did the team appear to be seriously weakened by this multitude of substitutions, the ball remaining well down in the opponents' territory even...
...long 2 to 2 tie with Virginia. The Navy went down to a 4 to 3 defeat with Whitney twirling, but the game was won for Harvard at the expense of losing Wyche, who tore a ligament in his ankle and has been unavailable since. Mahan met a tartar at Washington, for Catholic University found him for 11 hits and won, 11 to 8, but Harrison came back the next day and pitched Mitchell's men to a 12 to 3 score at the expense of Johns Hopkins. This victory was the first of an unbroken string of twelve...

An off-day for Captain Mahan, in itself a noteworthy epoch, coupled with the uncanny alertness of the Ithacans, was enough to give Cornell the 10 to 0 victory. A fumble at the very start, when the University men had not yet become accustomed to their opponents' style of play, gave Cornell the opportunity, and a short series of impressive smashes through a surprised Crim- son line gave the visitors a lead to which Shiverick later added with a pretty drop-kick. More fumbling...
...fast and tricky open-field running. Whether or not the Harvard line will prove of sufficient strength to let King and Whitney get in some effective line-plunging, remains to be seen. Whichever way the situation is regarded, the University eleven is today in serious danger of meeting a tartar...
...voyages of any great length. Its tribes show a curious combination of unity and variety. All have practically the same habits and customs, yet a native of one province is regarded as a foreigner by the inhabitants of another. After 690 B.C. China was gradually conquered by the Tartars, yet its civilization survived, so that within a few hundred years little trace of the Tartar Dy- nasty remained. This mixture of races is largely responsible for the present rebellion, as many of the people are not in sympathy with the Emperor, who is a Manchu Tartar...
