...clergyman as the basis of his talk. The first service in commemoration of the birth of John Harvard was held in 1904. In succeeding years, with the exception of 1907, the anniversary was allowed to pass without special notice. On the occasion of the three hundredth anniversary two years ago a notable celebration was held.

...days ago the CRIMSON called attention to the fact that substitutes on the University football squad who did not play in the Yale game deserved some in signia as a reward. The communication in another column calls attention to a condition in the award of cross-country insignia, which, on its face, is similar, but which, in reality, is not the same. Men who represent Harvard in cross-country runs receive the "H.A.A.," just as men entered in the Yale and intercollegiate track meets.

The Yale team however, deserved to win; the game was won by generalship, just as that played a year ago at New Haven, and by keeping to a kicking game, the Harvard team was forced back time and again almost to its goal line, which enabled Coy to make six attempts at field goals...

...best. Hobbs and Cooney were both very effective in the line, Hobbs blocking one of Minot's punts which resulted in the first score, Philbin, outside of one brilliant run of 40 yards after catching a punt, was not as spectacular as in the Princeton game a week ago.
