Foot ball, as played by our college elevens, is a very different game from the foot-ball of England. And, in fact, there are two kinds of foot-ball over there. Those who play the Association game think there is nothing like it as a scientific and exciting sport, while the Rugby players are just as devoted to their style of game...
...ineffective. Recently Professor Adler spoke in Sander's Theatre and impressed upon his hearers the word activity. If that lesson could be taken a little more to heart there would be a great change for the better in our scholastic institutions, in our athletics, and in our morals. We think that the president brought out the real truth in this matter in his lecture Monday evening.

...prominently into the field. We should without doubt have to devote ourselves to Columbia until we downed her. Then would we be ready for the blue and crimson. And that time depends as much upon you as upon the crew. Training will be very half-hearted if the men think the students do not take sufficient interest in their success to pay their way. The supporters should bethink themselves that they are helping to send out Cornell's first eight, and they may be helping-happy thought-to diminish Yale's "big head." The honor of sitting in Cornell...
