...between to and '91. Thirty, and twenty minute halfs were played, played. In the first half '91 had the ball most of the time and by hard work often forced it near '80's geal, only to have it sent down the field again by one of Crane's long kicks. Ninety-one gained her ground by shoves and short breaks through the rush line, while '90 made quick work in running around the ends and long klcks. In the second half '90 did most of the playing, but '91 played the same plucky game, though she had hard luck...

Apollo was the chief deity but there are some proofs that Bacchus was worshiped there before Apollo. People...

...university clock and chimes. The ground floor will be taken up by four seminary rooms and an auditorium with seating capacity for one thousand people. The main entrance opens directly into a vestibule with a large open fire-place. The reading room is one hundred and twenty feet long, seventy-two wide and thirty eight feet high.

...preceding editorials. The half way defence of "punches" is out of place in the editorial columns of the Advocate. That the rushes do no harm, indeed that they are rather good fun, is admitted but it is not probable that even this part of Bloody Monday Night will long exist in a place where all the tendencies of thought and action are as maturing as they are here at Harvard. It is rather a difficult matter to incite much class enthusiasm among fellovs who are made to feel more and more the longer they stay here that the division into...
