...swinging doors in Sever Hall. We can never tell when we enter whether at that moment some one will not be coming out and so slam the door in our face. This is especially grievous, as the two steps in front of the door give an impetus to the push which the goer-out gives to the door, preparatory to jumping down these steps, and often cause the goer-in to experience the spicy relish of being knocked over backwards. It seems as if a change in the direction in which the doors swing would obviate the annoyance. But certainly...

It is best to hold the tongue with a handkerchief that it may not slip, or to push a twig or hair pin through it and let that keep the tongue from falling back.

Russell made a long rush and secured the second touch-down for '87. Holden attempted to push him outside; both men became talkative whereupon they were promptly disqualified by the referee. Their places were filled by Wiestling, '87, and Palmer, '88. Score, '87, 10, '88, 8. The ball was punted out by Peabody; another rush and touch-down by Fletcher followed, from which Willard kicked a goal...
