Text | The Harvard Register, Feb. 1828; from an article entitled “Life in College.” "There are some other features of college life we fain would sketch but our pen confesses its weakness in the attempt. Would we could call upon the Engine to give out a history of the exertions of those who managed it in days of yore; or that we could contrive to make the Delta yield up a narrative of the sports it has witnessed. It could tell , before it took its present gallows appearance, of Cricket - Base - and Foot ball; it could tell how many pedal members began the game with white, unspotted skins, but limped off at its conclusion tinged with variegated hues.” |

Query | "Pedal members"? A pretty good Harvard friend of Protoball can't explain this term. "Delta"?
