...other editorials-the last one excepted-deal with "the repeated mismanagement in connection with the foot ball games." The policy of the foot ball association is pithily characterized as a plan to make money, and then to accomodate the students. The various instances of mismanagement are clearly set forth, both as regards last Saturday's game and next Saturday's. The last editorial notes the recently established institution of a Graduate Treasurer and the benefits to be derived from it. The tendency will be to make the finacial management of the athletic associations more satisfactory, and the way for other...
...Donnelly, disqualified for rough play. Lee and Saxe could not get started, and a misunderstanding of the signals forced Dean to touch the ball down for the fourth time.

...McDonald dodged finely and brought the ball back near the middle of the field. Crosby fell on the ball. It was passed to White but Crane tackled him before he got started. The ball went to Wesleyan on a misplay of Dean's. The full-backs kicked back and forth for several minutes, neither side making any gain. At last Harvard adopted rushing tactics again, and White, Stickney, Lee and Blanchard took the play well down towards Wesleyan's line. Lee made a superb rush to the five yard line. No gain was made on the first down...
