...candidates for the football eleven began regular practice yesterday afternoon, with an energy that promises well for the success of Harvard on the football field this fall. It is apparent, both from the number of men who turned out to practice and from the aptness they showed for their work, that with faithful practice Harvard can put a strong team in the field this fall. Feeling certain as we do that the captain will spare no effort to develop the strongest team possible from the players in the college, we look with some confidence to the result of his work...

...CAMBRIDGE DAILY.- Cambridge has, at last, what has long been needed, a firstclass local evening paper, called THE CAMBRIDGE DAILY. It has been running for about six weeks, and is now well established. It is well filled with all the local news, of which it prints from three to six columns a day. One of its strong features is its "notes and comments," which are very bright and spicy. It has a Harvard correspondent, who proposes to furnish all the college news. All the newsdealers have...

This material...

...Fitzhugh, Quimby, Cranston and Goldthwaite. The men were divided into three squads, headed by Capts. Sears, Trafford and Harding, and an hour was spent in sharp practice, first in dropping on the ball and then in running and passing. All the candidates showed an activity and eagerness which augur well. While it is too early to begin to make predictions as to the make-up of the eleven, the outlook is good. There seems to be no reason why, with hard and faithful practice, Harvard cannot place a strong team in the field in the coming contests with Yale...

...inability to bat Stagg was the great defect in their play. Yale's base-running was superb, and won her the game. Harvard failed to score until the seventh inning, when three hits and an error by Hunt gave her three runs-none earned. Both Stagg and Bates pitched well. The score...
