...very well placed and high enough to give the ends ample time to get down well. He was slow in starting however, and his rushing was mediocre. Brown aiso was slow. He fumbled a great deal and punted miserably. The offensive play of the backs was on the whole discouraging. Double passes and end around the other end plays nearly always resulted in a loss of ground. Cabot gained on these plays once or twice and with good support might have done better, but it is safe to say that unless materially strengthened by interference such plays are impracticable...
Saturday's football game marks to a certain extent an epoch in the development of the eleven, for Dartmouth's team was strong enough to test pretty thoroughly the progress made thus far. The result, when we think it over carefully, is not, on the whole, calculated to cause over-confidence.

The Athletic Committee has always had a hard row to hoe, and its work is none the less arduous because it is carried on in a very quiet, unpretentious way. In spite of the delicacy of its position, half-way between the students and a Faculty which is rather unfavorably inclined toward athletics, the committee has succeeded in maintaining a standard...
...stories: "The Misses Bentley's Telescope," by A. B. Ruhl, and "The Manger's Office," by J. A. Macy. In this last the atmosphere of the manager's office and the different episodes in the story are presented with exceptional convincingness and firmness of touch, while the whole, with the exception of a half column of repetition, is alive and vigorous...
