...freshman foot-ball eleven played the eleven of Phillips Andover Academy Saturday, and were defeated by a score of one goal to nothing. The supreme confidence of '86 in its eleven was slightly shaken; but in justice to the team, it may be said that the Andover campus is very unfortunately situated, and any eleven unacquainted with its peculiarities is at a great disadvantage. The ball was kicked off at 2.43 by Woodbury, who touched it with his foot and then passed it to one of the rushers, who, however, was soon stopped. By good playing of Kimball and Austin...

There will also be a grand stand accommodating one thousand spectators, which will be erected at a cost...
...senior class formed in procession, and after marching to music about the campus, took their way down into the city, attended with cheering and fireworks, to attend the class supper. On their return, about daybreak, the excitement was renewed about the college grounds by yelling and cheering, and the seniors then resorted to the ball ground for the usual annual game of base-ball played between scrub nines on this occasion. Some remarkable playing and curious antics were indulged in, as may be expected, and the class then gradually dispersed to rest and quietude...
