...victory over Yale, 18 to 17. And the only fitting way for 1917 to celebrate the anniversary of that famous game is for every man in the class to be at the Freshman game this after- noon. The story of last year's contest will not soon be forgotten here, for it was only an uphill fight against tremendous odds that gave Harvard the victory. In the first seven minutes of the game, Yale had scored 14 points; with only a minute left to play the Blue still led, 17 to 12. Then by a series of terrific line plunges...

...reading in its governmental course, and it is now being studied by 400 students. But how does that body know that the views of the president-elect are the same now as they were when he wrote that work? The book appeared so long ago that it had been forgotten by most of those who were familiar with his writings. It was written in 1884, when he was 28 years old, was the first of his books, and was published in 1885. When it was being written Arthur was president of the United States, and the first Democratic president chosen...
Those students who remain in Cambridge during the recess will not be forgotten at Christmas time, for President and Mrs. Lowell will entertain members of the University in their new house at 17 Quincy street on Christmas Eve, while on Christmas night a reception similar to the successful Thanksgiving festival, will be held in Phillips Brooks House. All students at Harvard are cordially invited to both, and we hope that many will avail themselves of these opportunities to enter into the celebration of the season. This Christmas Eve reception will be the first use President and Mrs. Lowell will make...
