...dual games with Pennsylvania held Saturday afternoon on Holmes Field resulted in a victory for Harvard by 57 points to 55. When the games were finished the score was a tie, but Orton had been protested for fouling Fenno in the half-mile run and, the protest being sustained, one point was transferred from Pennsylvania to Harvard. The games were probably the most interesting ever held in Cambridge, being full of hard fought contests and leaving the result in doubt to the very...

...emphasize how responsible each individual member of the team is for his own good condition: if the athlete in question had been in a position to run he would almost surely have won points, and would thus have given the games to Harvard without the decision of the protest. This same protest and consequent disqualification of one of Pennsylvania's men in the half mile run seems to have aroused much dissatisfaction; in fact, some, apparently, would rather have had the games a tie than win them on a foul.

In the first place, by no means all of the Boston papers...

...best Boston papers," the correspondent of the Advertiser and Record is the only man outside the office. On the face of it, then, the attack made in the CRIMSON would seem pretty clearly to fall on me, or at least on me particularly. Against this I protest emphatically. I will match my spirit of loyalty to Harvard against that of any Harvard man, the writer in the CRIMSON included. I deprecate the evil which exists in the papers now just as much as the CRIMSON, but I assert that I have not been the cause of that evil...
