Such a display of irresistible enthusiasm as we witnessed last evening at the football mass meeting in the Union is one of the best possible omens for the success of the team against Yale on the ninteenth. It was unusual, spontaneous, convincing, exactly the sort of driving spirit for which many of us have long envied our greatest opponent. Indifferent, indeed, must be the graduate or undergraduate who was not literally lifted off his feet and swung into the spirit of the meeting by the stirring speech of Coach Haughton...
...long run, for even had he broken free, no score could have resulted without quick and concerted action on the part of the rest of the team. The interference by which one Brown man after another was put out of the play was the best exhibition of this sort seen on Soldiers Field for a long time. When Corbett made his long run in the Bates game in 1908, the score which followed was the result of individual ability after the runner had broken free. This difference forms an interesting comparison of the work of the Harvard team...

Smith, and Wigglesworth were excused from reporting and Fisher, T. Frethingham, Keays, Perkins, and Leslie Watched the practice in street clothes. Wigglesworth has an attack of the jaundice and will not be in condition for at least two weeks...

In comparison with the literary productions of undergraduates, the subject of critical journalism is by far the more vital and present...
From the reports on slavery required in the second half-year, the same sort of knowledge is gained, but the books and subject matter concerned are frequently of even less importance. To require 20 or more hours work from a man broadly interested in American history in preparing a thesis upon "veritable instances of negro dialect in slavery times" is an imposition; and when the desired references are to books of such historical value as "Uncle Remus" it becomes almost ludicrous. To require from a serious student of the broad facts of our history an account of the best anti...
