This afternoon is held the annual spring athletic meeting. Although Harvard lost a number of her best men last year, there has been much hard work done by old members of the Mott Haven team and by the new men trying for places. The meeting this afternoon will, in a measure, show what are our chances of keeping up our reputation in track athletics. If the weather conditions are favorable, the meeting will undoubtedly be successful and some fast time made...
...infielders seemed bothered considerably, especially on sharp ground hits, by the dirt diamond. The backing up was poor throughout, Princeton played a game almost free from fielding errors but her work seemed to lack snap. She clearly outdid Harvard however, at every point.

The Juniors showed up well both at the bat and in the field. Butterworth was effective, and Aiken although having several passed balls, gave him good support. McKean played a good game at first base, and McCoy handled himself well at second. His batting was a feature of the game. The freshmen played poorly and the team will have to improve greatly if they wish to make any showing...
