Harvard had the kick-off and Willard sent the ball well up the field immediately, and before Yale seemed to realize what was going on, the ball was down on their five yard line. Work was very sharp for the next few minutes, but at last Harvard secured the ball and sending it out to Willard scored a goal from the field by his very pretty drop kick. At this very favorable turn of affairs Harvard did not attempt to conceal her enthusiasm, and Willard's name was cheered time and again. Yale was not disheartened, however, by this...

This was one of the finest plays of the game, but the tide seemed set against us, for suddenly Terry secured the ball far out in the field, and by a wonderfully skilful kick sent it squarely between the poles, scoring a third goal for Yale. From this kick-off Cowling kicked finely far into Yale ground, but the ball soon moved down the field and another score by Yale was only saved by Henry who allowed the ball to pass, from a kick, over...

...action in batting requisite in acquiring the art of placing the ball. Under the existing rule the pitcher is allowed to deliver seven balls before he can be punished for sending in unfair balls while the batsman is punished for failing to strike at the first three fair balls sent in to him. This is an advantage given the pitcher which has a damaging effect on the batting, especially in the matter of trying to bat with skill by placing the ball instead of the haphazard way in vogue now. One of two things is needed...
