...more, as to the "hic jacet." Is not this last attack the best way to stir up a real old-fashioned theatre party? If the custom was dead, why revive it again by trying to turn a quiet theatre party of forty fellows into a noisy revel of a whole class...

Many who witnessed last Saturday's games are inclined to over-rate Yale's abilities, because of a sympathizing interest in so young a club. Now, while this infant Hercules did undeniably well, still her playing was by no means phenomenal. The team's whole game was defence; absolutely no attack at all except as far as they got the ball on Harvard's ground in their determination to keep it off their own. They deserve much praise for their checking, covering, mutual support and everything that goes to make up a strong resistance, but they have...

...Hill Reservoir was perfect in all respects, and good riding was done by the hounds, that of Messrs. White and Maverick being especially good. At the reservoir the scent was lost, and fully three minutes were consumed before it was found again. Once more before reaching the finish the whole body of hounds were misled and took a circuitous route before regaining the regular trail. Mr. Moffat was the first of the hounds to reach the finish, closely followed by Mr. Hemenway. The total distance ridden was very nearly nineteen miles, and the riding time of the hares...
