...programme consisted of Beethoven's Leonora overture, No. 3, and prelude andante and gavotte by Bach. Schubert's fantasia in C for piano and orchestra and Volkmann's symphony in D minor. The overture has seldom been performed so well; it is a very exacting work, but was given with the greatest delicacy and finish. The Bach pieces were perhaps the gem of the evening; and their beauties were admirably brought out with a breadth and solidity which were charming. The soloist was Mr. Sherwood, who played the great Schubert fantasia magnificently, overcoming the technical difficulties with apparent ease...
...rusher line as a whole plays with a noticeable lack of spirit and determination, and is a sad contrast at present with those which made Yale famous in the rushing game. They seldom not nice in the past two days stop a kick. and are so eager to get down the fiord that they do not protect the halfbacks sufficiently for the kick. In lining up to put the ball in play they are in general above reproach, but at times, especially after a hard run. they seem disposed...
...passing of our men was at times brilliant and at other times careless. The men followed the ball well and were almost always there, an improvement over former days.

...constructed in loose iambic which give a flow and freedom to the translation and makes us feel that Homer is in fact as well as in reputation a bard. The order of the original is followed very closely, and this method of translation gives a certain quaintness that is seldom met with in other translations of Homer. Although the rhythmical rendering prevents an absolutely literal translations, the work compares very favorably in this respect with Butcher and Lang who aim at literalness...
...Moffat of last year's Princeton team has used it much, but we hope our backs will try to learn it, as none of them have so far been able to make a very long, high punt. Some of the players "run back" now and then. This is very seldom anything but loss. Every man ought to drill himself into the habit of never running back a foot. If there is no one back of you to pass the ball to, say down ; if there is, pass it at once. He can run to better advantage than...
