...score of 16 to 6. The teams were fairly evenly matched both on the offensive and defensive and neither could make consistent gains through the others' line. Barring some slowness in getting the plays started in the early part of the game, and some fumbling, Pennsylvania played splendid football. When she found her guards-back formation useless she had to rely on straight football to gain. The Indians showed wonderful defensive strength, but their offensive was not quite as strong as was expected. The few fumbles that they made were disastrous. Towards the end of the game the Indians fell...
Saturday was given to excursions in charge of Dr. Gregory. The morning was spent in examining West Rock, where the party found splendid exposures of the intrusive contact of a huge lava sheet with the Triasaic sand-stones. In the afternoon the party, including Professors Williams, Beecher and Pearson of Yale, took the train to Meriden, passing the escarpment of the hanging hills on the way, and going on to the large quarries in the lava beds north of the city.

The costumes are extremely pretty and the whole effect of the piece is delightful...

The ample space and the rising of the ground, would show off any fine building to splendid advantage. Though in reality not far from the Quincy street site, to which so much objection has been taken, and rightly, it is for practical purposes very far removed from it. It is on one of the main routes leading from the populated district south of Massachusetts avenue to Memorial Hall...
