Harvard and Yale played before a crowd of 74,786 people in the Yale Bowl. At the Army game there were 57,986 people, and for the Dartmouth game 57,925 tickets were issued. The actual attendance at that game was doubtless far below that number because of the rain...
...Southerner Andrew Jackson, Tennessee-DEMOCRAT, began his second presidential term. History repeats, they say, and the South ? strongly coming forward. Who knows?

Two years ago Miss Gahagan went abroad to study music. In Tonight or Never she sings snatches of Tosca very satisfactorily...
...drop the great Yale backs, and Quarterback Trix Bennett who played without a rest, who scored the touchdown that put Princeton ahead at the half, who failed by two inches only to get over the first down that would have meant another score and victory in the fog and rain, in the last minute of play, on Yale's five-yard line. The touchdown the Yale substitutes had made on a long pass across the goal line in the third period was still good. Yale 10, Princeton...
