...their trousers were torn. They looked sad and goreful. Sophomore Parker performed ground and lofty tumbling. He was occasionally seen to rise in the air and sail horizontally over the outskirts of the cloud. He usually came down on a freshman's head. When he did the freshman fell, 'and, falling, he uttered a groan and darkness covered his eyes.' In one of sophomore Parker's leaps he jumped clear out of his trousers, and thence-forth his costume was airy if not elegant...
After a few minutes rest, play was resumed, and in one minute Montreal added one more to her score. Shortly after, the ball was faced again. Williams secured it, dodging finely, slipped and fell hut recovered himself in time to get the ball again and passed it to the attack. Soon Nichols got a free throw on account of a foul by Carlind.

After the bestowal of degrees by President Eliot, the exercises closed. Then came the jovial rallies around the punch bowls by the younger...
...means so high as they were several years ago, before the Co-operative Society was formed. Indeed, to this society Harvard men are now owing an economy in college expenses, which had been impossible before the society's existence. It is our unpleasant task to recall the embarrassments which fell upon the society last spring. Let it be hoped, as it may well be expected, that no such embarrassments will occur again. The interest which prevailed at that time and by which the Co-operative was saved an inglorious fall, is good evidence of how the society was appreciated...
