...second time that the men went to work a change was noticeable. Trinity played with more life and not without skill. Harvard, grown careless by reason of the ease with which they had all their own way in the first inning, often fumbled, blocked poorly and allowed the Trinity men to get the ball in their possession too much. The first few minutes Phillips and Simpkins did all the work for Harvard and a touchdown resulted from the latter's brilliant dash across the line. No goal. Bemis then attempted to make a pass to Simpkins but a Trinity...
...passing of our men was at times brilliant and at other times careless. The men followed the ball well and were almost always there, an improvement over former days. Little tackling was done as the Trinity men seldom had the ball. In the second inning Keith broke his nose and his place was taken by Homans. The teams were : Trinity-Rushers, Miller, (capt.)

We cannot blame the students for preferring soft grass to dusty gravel walks. The college authorities should have the paths watered and rolled so as to be fit for use and in this way prevent the passers-by from wearing down the grass...
...talk with any of the men and give them the benefit of their experience and advice, while some few have, in one or two brief sentences, described to their division the various electives under their particular branch of learning, and showed the purpose and advantage of courses which a careless man might overlook or throw aside as too hard and abstract. The faculty, on the other hand, have gone to the expense and trouble of having descriptive pamphlets printed. These short descriptions may be obtained on application at the office, and fill a long felt want. Although the advice...
