...Ground has already been broken for a new dormitory on Massachusetts avenue just below Beck Hall. According to the plans of the architect, Mr. James Fogerty, the dormitory will resemble closely those on Mount Auburn street, with its foundations and first story of granite and the upper stories of brick with stone trimmings. The building, which is to be lighted by electricity and heated by steam, will be five stories high and contain thirty-one single and four double suites. It will be ready for occupancy next fall...
With almost no wind, punting was ofter resorted to by both sides and Hallowell easily out-punted Miller, who was forced to do the kicking for the Indians. Much ground was also gained by Daly, who rushed back Miller's punts usually for gains of about 15 yards.

In the succeeding sets, Marvin steadied down and from the base line passed Ward frequently. His back-hand stroke was very speedy and his low ground-strokes were effective against Ward's net game...

Ground given for offside play brought the ball near the line, and the second carried it over for the first time this season...

The hurdling style of Ellis and Warren, although effective yesterday, will not gain ground against a strong team. In the back-field, Sawin did excellent work. He outpunted Putnam repeatedly and by following his interference well, made several long runs...
