...Point and the Carlisle Indians all came in the month of October, followed immediately by the severe work of preparation for the Pennsylvania game, brought the men to such a fineness of physical condition that it became necessary at once to handle them with the greatest care, and to watch their work very closely, to prevent them from going stale...
Wednesday night, for the second time, a watch was kept at the Observatory for the expected shower of Leonids, but only seventy-six meteors were counted, of which forty-three were Leonids, that is, had a path radiating from Leo. A watch was kept last night and will probably be kept tonight for the fourth and last time. However, it is hardly expected that there will be a shower, as the orbit of the Leonids is too far from the earth--about one and three quarters million miles. Moreover, the number of Leonids seen has decreased since 1898; less were...
...line seems to be overrated. Teas and Zimmerman were clearly outplayed by Lee and Lawrence, but steady gains were made through every part of the defense. Hare and Wallace only were effective on the offense. Harvard's plays worked very smoothly, and her and running was beautiful to watch...
...punts was very creditable for a rainy day. In the line Campbell did the best work. He made some very good tackles, and several times broke up the second team's plays before they reached the line.

He endured the hard work well and was not exhausted. J. Lawrence did not watch the ball carefully, and allowed Swann to run twenty-five yards on an old-fashioned fake kick. He stopped the second attempt at the same play for a loss. Ristine, who has just gained permission from the Faculty to play, went in at right end on the first eleven...
