Although Harvard played championship ball, the Princeton team was decidedly off color, and today it is expected that the calibre of its real baseball ability will be manifested. The fact that the University team has not won a game at Princeton for twelve consecutive years is good evidence of Princeton's strength on the home grounds.

The Junior crew has corrected the tendency to wash out and rows with much snap, although the body swing of the men is very uneven. Both the Senior and Junior crews have shown their ability to start at 40 strokes to the minute.
