...Saltonstall's punting was very effective. Hardwick was taken out during the third quarter but was sent in again in the last, in which he intercepted a forward pass and ran 50-yards for the second touchdown.

...short lead, but within a few strokes Hampden-Dunster passed it and was not headed throughout the remainder of the distance. The real interest of the race was in the struggle for second place between Randolph, Weld, and Mt. Auburn street. At Harvard Bridge Randolph and Weld were almost even, with Mt. Auburn street a half-length behind, rowing a much slower stroke, but in the last stretch there was not enough power in either the Weld or Mt. Auburn street boats to keep them up.

Potter, while not up to Howe of Yale, as a quarterback, is a dependable man. Smith at end is better than any one Yale or Princeton can show, and Felton or Howard will make a satisfactory runningmate for him; but with the exception...

...second division started shortly after 3.45 o'clock in the following order: 1, Hampden-Dunster; 2, Weld; 3, Jay; 4, Holyoke street; 5, Fairfax. Almost at the start this race split up into two sections, the first section a procession of three crews with Hampden-Dunster continually gaining on the other two, and the second section a race in which Fairfax bumped Holyoke street just after rounding the last bend. The second section were far behind the first when the bumping took place...
