...suppose only those of us who were forced to sit at the end of the field Saturday could fully appreciate the great superiority of the Yale cheering, which must have much encouraged their team. This was partly due, no doubt, to the fact that their cheerers were better massed, but that alone does not explain it, for the volume of the Harvard cheer was greater than that from the opposite stand.

In "Old and New," J. H. Cabot, 2nd, '00, undertakes to delineate the character of a Casco Bay "islander," and fails completely. "Perquisites," by John G. Cole sC., and "A Fiasco," by R. W.
