...must be given. At times it was remarkably good, but then again the most glaring faults were made evident and the same errors repeated in two or three successive plays. Great improvement must be made in this particular before either Harvard or Princeton are met. Such teams will be quick to follow up the advantage obtained with most disasterous results to Yale. Princeton has a rush line equal to our own if not better, so that the game with her will have to be won by the superior work of our backs. It is easy to see then, how important...

...room in the college buildings. There is no doubt but that there are proctors who are over officious, yet we can hardly believe with our correspondent that the evil of their unwarranted interference is a very great one. It seems to us that sometimes the proctors are not quick enough to remind too noisy students that there are others whose rights must not be infringed upon, even at the expense of a breaking up of a modest social gathering. Again it is urged that the present system of surveillance is a bad one. But is this true? Are the proctors...

We think of such enlargements as I have depicted rather as escapes from bigotry and superstition than as possible entrances into deeper faith. We dwell...

...Marshals, earnestly to request that the members of the Freshman and Sophomore classes refrain from all attempts to have a rush during any part of the evening's celebration. That a rush on the occasion of Harvard's 250th anniversary would be highly indecorous, every gentleman will be quick to appreciate. We trust that these few words will suffice to remind all lower class men of their duty toward themselves and their college...

...team as a whole play with more snap than they did a little while ago, and some of the men follow the ball and back the others up pretty well; but they do not get through the rush line quick enough; and even when they do, they do not seem to know where to get to stop the opposing half-back from kicking the ball back. In the whole of the game against Andover, the Harvard rush line did not stop the halfbacks from kicking one single time after a down, a showing which, as they were playing against...
