...advantage of about one thousand in eligibles. Mr. P. J. Stearns discusses again Dr. Nichols's reports on injuries from football and draws the usual deduction in favor of the new game. Mr. Sammons argues for a Freshman Dormitory with a new library, gymnasium, and chemical laboratory, thrown in. Mr. Paul Mariett contributes some lines on "Crew-Practice." Mr. Mariett possesses a command of language which is unique for a young man; at present, however, he is in the imitative stage; now he merges himself in Whitman, now in Walter Pater.

...taken from the field, and Marsh substituted. Harvard then began to gain, but Lewis was soon forced to kick to Paradise who gained only one yard. The Freshmen recovered the ball on a fumble. Wendell replaced Lewis, and Graves went in for Graustein. Marsh punted to Paradise who was thrown for no gain. Fletcher then kicked out from behind his own goal-line.

In the fifth, after two men had struck out, Sweeney secured a base on balls and after stealing second scored when Mallory hit for two bases. The game ended without further scoring, though Howes tripled in the eighth...

This reasoning has been tested in connection with track meets: the Graduate Treasurer of the Athletic Association in his report for 1906-07 says, "The track events did not seem to draw, when standing on their own feet, the income they did when they were thrown in as part of the inducement to buy the regular H.
