...Pope Leo gave his opinions on the relations of Church and State. He said first, that Church patriotism is a higher thing than national patriotism, and that in any disagreement between a man's government and his Church, he should in all cases stand by the former. The letter of 1890 goes on to say that the Church should have supervision over the government, and should have direct control of all matters of intellectual or moral interest to mankind...
...great superiority of the Yale cheering, which must have much encouraged their team. This was partly due, no doubt, to the fact that their cheerers were better massed, but that alone does not explain it, for the volume of the Harvard cheer was greater than that from the opposite stand. The trouble was, I think, that our "Three long Harvards and three times three" is slow, drawling, and unenthusiastic. It typifies everything which Harvard is not, although fairly representing what our enemies think...
...insufficiency of the cheer was never better shown than in the last few minutes of the game when time was precious and the eleven needed, if it needed anything, to be urged to quick, snappy play. Then the nervous, bubbling enthusiasm of the great south stand was throttled by those three long slow "Harvards" and nine slow "rahs," while even the band struck up "Fair Harvard" to the tune of a funeral dirge.

Three 10 yard rushes,--on two double passes and a mass play,--four five yard rushes, and then Yale made a stand. A final burst by Ellis, however, gave Harvard first down on Yale's eight-yard line. Again Ellis was sent into the line, with Donald pushing him, and finally, on the ninth trial, he failed to gain and Yale got the ball on downs. On McBride's punt out, Daly made...
...tickets sent to Yale are in the centre of the North Stand. Those sent to the Harvard Club of New York fill one entire section near the centre of the South Stand. The players, coachers and others in the preceding table are regarded as privileged, and special seats were reserved for them in the centre of the South Stand. Thus 8265 tickets were disposed of before the applications of the season ticket holders were considered. When we add the 7835 seats sold to them, we have 16,100 persons who desire seats between the goal lines. As there...
