...News contains a highly humorous account of a Harvard-Oberlin foot-ball match played in dress-suits and presided over by the Rev. Howard Crosby. We know of no stronger argument for the institution of a reading room here than the opportunity that would thus be given to the whole college to enjoy such good-natured wit in common which now we can only peruse in secret...
...season is very late, the championship will remain a draw, and no other game played. Harvard virtually won the game, having made less safety touchdowns.

That whole game is one system and the whole team a machine which depends upon the slightest move of that one man. Would any American player give up the beautiful play which results from this feature - the throws to the halves - the short passes to rushers - the quick kicks by the quarter himself, and take in its place the pell-mell pushing, hacking and butting of the English scrummage...
