...other. The plea that the vote must deal consistently with all clubs, that what is not granted to one should not be to others does not hold good in this case. For, while the Sophomore Theatricals may do no good the freshman. Musical Clubs do. This action is decidedly unfair, and if the vote is rigidly enforced it will kill all freshman musical organizations. In view of the two important arguments in their favor a rigorous enforcement of this vote will be decidedly unjust...

It is not for us to impeach the integrity of Mr. Coffin; we cannot prove that his umpiring was intentionally unfair, nor can we prove that, in the case of the touchdown by Hallowell he gave a decision which he knew was wrong.

The Harvard team repeatedly had to submit to the most unjust decisions, while Fall River men were seldom or never made to pay the forfeits of unfair playing, though several of them were repeatedly warned that they were either holding or playing off-side. Ninety-four played rather loosely and with poor interference, which was not surprising considering the crippled condition of the men. In the latter half, the work was much better. Brooks made a touchdown but missed...
