...with Dartmouth, Saturday afternoon on Soldiers Field. The score was 16 to 6; but a much smaller margin would have more nearly expressed the very slight superiority of the Harvard team. It was really an unusually close contest and up to the last five minutes of play seemed almost certain to end in a victory for Dartmouth. Each team had scored one touchdown, but Harvard had failed to kick goal, and with the score at 6 to 5 Dartmouth was pushing steadily down the field for what seemed sure to be another touchdown. On the 25-yard line, however...

...irresistable attack on Harvard's guards and tackles. Play after play was hurled into the line with the result that by gains of from 2 to 10 yards the ball was very soon landed in the opposite end of the field and a score for Dartmouth seemed almost as certain as one had appeared for Harvard a moment before.

...held by Australian ballot. (which is no more than is now done several times every year by the Memorial Hall Dining Association) after a fortnight's notice, with the polls open all day, and the greatest necessary facility of nomination. This portion of the By-Laws, and certain other vital sections, such as those fixing salaries, departments, and policies, so far as possible to be laid down should be amendable after having been once adopted only by a meting at which a very high proportion of members were present and voting, or by the Australian ballot again, with all proper...
