Mowry, one of their best half-backs, a swift runner and a sure tackler, has been laid up on account of sickness for a fortnight. It is expected that he will be so far recovered as to be able to play against Harvard next Saturday; still the loss of practice and the loss of strength attendant upon his illness will be a severe...
