Harvard's showing in the South, where it outscored its opponents 40-14, would be enough to spark dreams of invincibility in the heart of a Cub rooter. Rollins, which had been practicing since January and already had 18 games under its belt, scored four runs in the sixth inning to spoil the Crimson's debut, 6-2, on April 5.

...bustling, matriarchal mother could ever really cope with him. His elder brother Gerard (later president of General Electric) took him in hand, tried to infuse a little discipline into this wayward spirit. Instead, Herbert strayed into journalism, then one of the more undisciplined professions, and eventually surfaced as a cub reporter for the New York Herald...
