...very seldom that one pauses, in his college course, to reflect upon the representative character of the body of students of which he forms a part. A glance at the table printed on our first page will be a revelation to many. Is it not strange that, since so many men are studying at Cambridge who come from one section of the country, no efforts are made to form representative state clubs? This system has been in successful operation at Yale for some years, and has resulted in the forming of many most enjoyable associations. We have long and earnestly...
Turning to our base ball prospects, we may well be happy. It is seldom indeed that a year opens more auspiciously for Harvard success in this sport than does the present. With a nine nearly if not absolutely as strong as the '84 team, we can confidently expect that hard work and honest, faithful training will bring the champion ship to Cambridge in 1885. The chances of our winning the race with Yale depend upon two variables,-the members of the crew, and the Athletic and Advisory Committees. As to the first we have no fear; as to the second...
...lecture which will be given this evening by Edmund W. Gosse, Esq., of Cambridge University, England, deserves to be attended by a large and appreciative audience. The students of Harvard seldom have the opportunity of hearing the noted lecturers who come to this country; but when such opportunity is offered, everyone should avail himself of it, and not let the occasion slip by. The Historical society, one of the few live societies of the college, has shown commendable activity in making all the arrangements for this lecture. To this society we owe whatever pleasure and instruction we may receive from...
...freely acknowledge that foot ball is rough, but it is that very roughness that makes the sport so manly. Besides, the game appears much worse to spectators than it really is. The "throws" and "falls" are seldom serious, and we may say that permanent injury is as rare as in any other form of exercise. In the Yale game, on which the Athletic Committee seem to have come to their decision, no one of the players was in the least hurt, and no one was obliged to leave the field. In English schools, the students are obliged to play foot...
...OTTAWA GAME.Harvard won the toss and took advantage of a slight wind blowing directly toward the field. During the first three-quarters our rush line played a very steady game, tackling well and seldom losing the ball. Kimball by a pretty run secured a touch down. Shortly after Gilman got another. Goals were kicked from both. Homans at this point of the game was injured, while making a play which forced Ottawa to touch down for safety, and Thayer took his place...
