Last year's season was a vindication of the Harvard system. Although beaten in two early season games on account of lack of practice, the team succeeded in defeating both Yale and Princeton, as well as the Boston All Stars, who later played Pittsburg to determine which team should go to the Olympic Games, Dartmouth, and the Sherbrooke Hockey Club of Canada. Besides this enviable record, the team was uniformly victorious in its many practice games with strong teams in and around Boston...

Thursday in a practice game between teams "A" and "B." he made a wonderful exhibition of broken field running by taking the ball 90 yards for a touchdown. However, his lack of practice will probably keep him from starting at quarter. Much is expected of the ends, Williams and Albright, whose work throughout the year has been of the highest calibre and their speed and ability to catch forward passes has been largely responsible for Brown's success with the aerial...
