...house which is being built for the Harvard Club of New York by McKm, Mead, and White is nearly finished and will probably be ready for occupancy before the middle of May. The building is three stories in height. Its exterior is built in the colonial style, of Indiana lime-stone and red brick. On the middle of the upper story, between two white medallion windows is a square stone which bears the shield of Harvard. There are some two dozen rooms in the building. The cost will approximate $55,000. The sum was raised by subscriptions from the Harvard...

There will be four entrances, two on the Oxford street side and two on the Jarvis field side, so that the building will eventually face on the quadrangle when the field is built upon...
...whole structure, since the mountain regions give the main clues to the great geological movements. They represent the tracts of country which have been formed the longest, parts of them having always remained above water. The sediment washed by the sea from these protruding tracts has formed lime-stone and sand stone about their edges and the strata of these rocks is therefore much thicker here than in regions like the Mississippi basin which have been often submerged. One of the great theories of mountain formation takes these sedimentary rocks and their overloading of the earth's crust...
After exchanging kicks Harvard got the ball on Dartmouth's 40 yard lime. One minute more to play. Trafford punted and the ball rolled over the line where Price dropped on it.

Lake made 10 more followed by a pretty rush of 20 by Gage. Then Lake brought it within 8 yards of the Dartmouth line by a 15 yard rush and Gage carried it over. Goal...
...story windows and the general appearance can be obtained. It bears a marked resemblance to Edwards Hall, but the large main entrance in the middle of the building greatly enhances its beauty and gives it the finest entrance of any dormitory on the Campus. This entrance, with its Indiana lime-stone columns, opens into a large vestibule, twenty feet square. From all indications the building will be completed and ready for occupancy by September; it is to be four stories high, with accommodations for eighty students...
