...fair catch but the ball went wide. Holy Cross scrimmaged from her 20-yard line, but, as O'Brien was thrown for a loss of 10 yards, a punt was needed. Hardwick again took the ball on the 45-yard line and ran in 35 yards, the second longest gain of the day. He then made two plunges and placed the ball over the line. No goal was kicked...
Princeton, N. J., November 1, 1911.--The longest and hardest practice of the year was held on Osborne Field this afternoon, when the Princeton football team was put through a scrimmage of over an hour in length. Baker played a wonderful game in the backfield, but the line with the exceptions of Captain Hart, Duff, and Bluethenthal was again weak.

Gibson singled and Coon, who batted for Ernst, drew a pass, as Cottrell was becoming somewhat nervous. Carr then flied to short stop, ending the game...
...Progress of Mrs. Alexander" differs in three particulars from the plays that the Dramatic Club has acted hitherto. It is a light and satirical comedy of the present hour; it has its local interest and entertainment, since the longest and the most amusing of the three acts passes in a Boston drawing room at the meeting of a Boston club; and it has been written by a student of Radcliffe. It will be the first long comedy and the first play by a woman that the club has acted. It is, besides, a piece actually written by a student...
