...Tompkins, '84, one of the best rushers Yale ever had, has left his home in New York State and is coaching the Yale eleven. He says their gravest faults are the careless manner in which they fall on the ball and their inability to hold the ball when rushing with...
...kicking by the Pennsylvania half-back, the ball was brought to Yale's 30-yard line. Then Yale forced the ball back to Pennsylvania's 25-yard line. Morrison here tried for a goal from the field but missed. The ball was then brought out and after much careless play and good rushes by Morrison and Wallace, the latter finally made a touchdown. Goal. Score, 28-0. Pennsylvania just before this had been forced to make a safety. In a few minutes, Gill made a touchdown, from which Beecher kicked a goal. Soon Gill made another touchdown. Goal. Two touchdowns...
...permit us to call it a very promising effort. There is not much to be said for "Anna Polanova" a story placed in the high life of St. Petersburg. There are enough larynxruffling gutterals in the name of the various "vitches" and "ovnas" to make a careless reader believe that it is a powerful Russian story, but a closer perusal will show that things are not always what they seem. It takes more than a few well-compounded consonants to make a good story Russian Turkish or Chinese. Some minor verses and book notices make up the rest...

Of these Wallace, Gill, Corbin, Woodruff, Beecher and Morrison were on last year's team. Cross was substitute on last...
...clock, when the game should have been called. This took time, and game was finally called at 3.30 with the fair lines still wet and slippery, and pegs a foot high stuck all over the field, which Mr. Carpenter and I went round and pulled up. This was sufficiently careless, but one of the Tech half-backs found the leaving of a marking string lying across the field more dangerous still when he took a header over it during the game. Home plate, as I said before, was not removed till a player had to be carried away from previous...
