Wild Harvard Football Practice Draws Crowd and Bursting Comanches
A Post reporter watches Harvard football players in long hair and muddy gear clash on the field in three groups through the club house doors. A spectator recalls Absalom and notes the players’ ferocious, humorous scene as crowds cheer the heavy head but the ball seems secondary to the melee. The piece ends by predicting the Yale Harvard outcome and a possible Springfield blue or crimson painted town. The article then shifts to a road race in Chelsea and local cycling club news with entries, prizes, and upcoming events.
