When the great light of modern science came upon the world many were weak enough to think that the old revelations were thrown into discredit; they fell down on their faces instead of remembering the exhortation of the prophet to stand on their feet and face the glory of the Lord.

With the ball at the Harvard 45 yard line McCormick gained 5 yards but Jenkins lost ten by a bad pass and Bliss fell on the ball. Bliss then made a pretty run around Wrenn's end for 15 yards. McCormick lost three yards by Waters' good tackle.

Good tackling by Newell and Shea and steady blocking in the centre prevented Yale from gaining...

It seemed now that Yale must secure a touch-down, but the Harvard line said, "No." Newell was everywhere; he first prevented gains by his superb tackling, and then broke through and secured the ball on Williams' fumble. Trafford kicked strongly, and Cumnock was upon McClung before he could...
