...class game this afternoon promises to be well worth seeing. The two elevens have shown themselves fairly evenly matched and are playing rather better football than is usual in the class series. The freshmen have shown superiority in round-the-end plays, and if the ground is in any condition for running they will probably have a slight advantage.

On the other hand, Ninety-eight...
