I refer to the danger that the best men may be defeated at the election of the votes of the class have to be scattered among too large a number of nominees. This applies especially to the committee's, which, though esteemed minor honors, are very great in importance. Usually there are not more than four men for each committee who deserve to be elected.

Unfortunately, Sawin was out of the game, and Hallowell had to try for the goal. He missed...
...tackle and end plays. Captain Davis of the Andover team outplayed his opponent and made good holes for the runner whenever he was called upon. Toward the end of the game Exeter held for downs on her four yard line, but after the ball had been kicked out of danger, Andover scored another touchdown by successive plunges through the tackles. The game was called on account of darkness...
