...course, by such discussion; but they would at least give a chance for the airing of opinions on both sides of disputed questions. This in itself is of no small value. A Republican or a Democrat gains little or nothing by walking ten miles in a procession with five hundred or a thousand equally ardent men of his own party. His opinions are not broadened by sitting in a friend's room and condemning the policy of his opponents. There is a decided gain, however, in listening to more than one side of a question, and in putting aside prejudices...
...attack players--Taylor, Penhallow, Alvord and Breed--played well together, but the best individual work on the offense was done by Hardy, whose accurate shooting made five of Harvard's goals. The defence had little to do, and the steadiness of Mortland and Wynne kept the ball away from the goal throughout the game, except during the first few moments of the second half...
...Union has met with fair success in its work, though in some branches a slight falling off in interest has been noticed. Of the thirty courses offered by Harvard men the most popular were shorthand, mechanical drawing, Latin, arithmetic, elocution and reading.

Harvard outplayed Lafayette at every point yesterday afternoon and won by a score of 8 to 2. The Lafayette nine played better than any team which has been here this season except Brown, and the game was in doubt for five innings. The work of the nine in the field was much better than in Saturday's game, but was not so sharp as might be expected at this time of the year. The batting was not strong enough to have won against one of the big teams. The fact that seven men hit safely, however, is an encouraging feature...
