...Princeton man started to make a run, the ball would invariably change hands three or four times before the Harvard rushers could make it down. In marked contrast to this was the lack of union in the play of Harvard. A Harvard rusher in making a run was seldom backed up by anyone, and a very little passing was attempted. The tackling of the Princeton team was low and hard, but the light weight of the men sometimes prevented the immediate stopping of the rushers. Lamar, Baker and Kimball made some good runs for Princeton, Lamar especially showing himself...
...mainly of seniors, who have had three years experience of the game. The university teams play before dinner from 12 to 1.30, and run about two miles ; they practice kicking and passing before supper, from 5 to 6 ; these hours contrast strongly with those of our team, beginning play seldom much before 4.30, and forced to stop by a twilight much earlier than that of Princeton.

The best representative of this sort of college journal is the Yale Lit, an excellent paper in its way, and one that we believe is well supported, as it deserves to be. But the distinctive American college journal is of an entirely different character...
...observed that very seldom, if ever, are men who have had a college training found claiming that it has proved worthless or estimating its value in any way but the reverse of this. And if a list of facts is called for from those who hold that college breeding is worthless, or worse, out of which their uncomfortable belief has grown, it will be found that the facts are only such as have their foggy existence in want of knowledge and misconception. A small list, in proportion, of tramps, loafers, paupers, will be gathered from college alumni. Nor will...
