...fast and smooth team play which might be expected at the close of the season, the work last night showed considerable improvement over the crude playing in the early part of the week. The men pass fairly well, the chiefs faults in this particular being a tendency to neglect chances for long, open throws. This fault often serves to give the opposing team time to cover thoroughly before the ball reaches the vicinity of the goal and thus makes difficult a throw which, had it been made in the first place from a distance, would have been comparatively easy.

...Illustrated Magazine for October opens with two illustrated articles; one, unsigned, on the Stillman Infirmary; the other, by G. E. Huggins 2G., describing under the title, "A Laboratory of Life," some of the philanthropic enterprises carried on by Harvard men. Some verses called "Neglect," by G. A.

...enthusiastic in its support. The press is unanimous in commending the present government, and all elements of the reform movement continue to support it. As a matter of public welfare, the issue is plain. A Tammany government means corruption in every department, the looting of the city treasury, neglect of public health, and the increase of crime aided by the police. The present administration stands for honesty, preservation of the public health, protection for the morals of the people, and the suppression of crime of all kinds. The course proposed by the affirmative is not right theoretically because it does...

Unless more men sign the blue book at once those who wish to go to Philadelphia will not be able to get reduced rates. Every year there are men who intend to go on these reduced rates, but who neglect to sign until too late, and are forced to pay the full price.
