...Arthur Whiting will give the first of his expositions of chamber music this evening at 8 o'clock. Owing to the great success of these concerts last year, the Fogg Lecture Room was found too small, so that this year they will be held in the New Lecture Hall. Mr. Whiting, assisted by Miss Laura Kelsey, violinist, Mr. George Barrere, flutist, and Mr. Alwin Schroeder, violoncellist, will give the following program to illustrate the work of Johann Sebastian Bach...
...current Advocate is fairly saturated with football, from the editorials and the leading article down to the inevitable "he and she" version of the great game. The leading article, by Mr. W. D. Sullivan '83 of the Boston Globe, has the great merit, rare in prophetic literature that it can be read after the event quite as well as before. It explains, simply and clearly, the situations which had to be met this fall by the coaches at New Haven and at Cambridge, and the methods followed in building up the two teams. Worth reading before the game, by reason...
...have no excuses or complaints to make in regard to the outcome of the great game, nor can any number of "ifs" soften the sting of defeat. Victory went to the better team, and the Yale eleven earned all the credit that it is receiving by playing a hard, clean game and doing it better than its opponents.

Captain Fish was marvellous on the defence; he seemed to be all over the field making a great many tackles in the open. Corbett, by his runs outside of tackle, gained many yards. He ran hard dodged well, and was always following the ball. The two Withingtons, Fisher and McKay formed a line through which Yale made but two first downs during the entire game. The ends were not brilliant...
...came. In this game fumbling, which has been the chief fault, was very evident, while, on the other hand, Minot's terrific line-plunging, the main strength of this year's eleven as an offensive machine, was decisively exemplified. Since the Williams game, however, the coaches have devoted a great deal of time to the correction of fumbling, especially in the backfield, and in catching punts. Captain Fish and Minot have been the most conspicuous players on the team, the former showing up as the mainstay on the defence, the latter as the most consistent ground gainer. Captain Fish...
