...afternoon sufficed to convince me that I was not a second Herbert Leeds, and that frequent collisions with mother earth were not becoming to my style of beauty. To this day my neck has not recovered from the twist it received that afternoon when I rolled on Holmes Field beneath Harrington...
...even when Mutton kicked a goal from the field, after two of Harvard's team were knocked up, and their places taken by substitutes, they were mean enough to say it was "luck," and "they played as good a game as we did."

Keith kicked a goal from this touch-down in fine style. When time was called, the score stood, Harvard, 3 goals and 1 touch-down; Columbia, 0. For Harvard, Thacher and Foster played remarkably well. Clarke and Atkinson...
