...upon football as a game. Often it has been criticised as not only requiring special physical ability, but also as not being enjoyable. That the athletic careers of the All-Star players were not unpleasant, is rather conclusively shown by the existence of a team, whose members achieve not even the recompense of general recognition...
...either boathouse to form two crews, so the development has necessarily been slow. Both boats have shown a tendency to hang at the catch, and space poorly, but the Newell crew has been together longer, and therefore has a better rhythm and can keep the shell on a more even keel. A number of the men rowed on the same dormitory crew, and their improvement in the last few days has been more rapid, so that the Newell crew is expected to win. The orders of the crews for the race will be as follows...

At the start of the game, Harvard had a substitute backfield. Hann was in McKay's place at left tackle and Huntington played centre. The team thus made up overwhelmed Cornell and scored the first touchdown within five minutes of play. After Lewis had added three points by a drop-kick from the 25-yard line, substitutes were put in, but the offence was not materially weakened...
