...over a one and one-half miles course on Lake Quinsigamond on Saturday, May 23. The race which was to have been held with the Stone's School crew has been cancelled. The crew is being coached regularly by J. F. Perkins 3L., and is gradually improving in form, although many faults are noticeable. Both eights, especially the first are unsteady in the water, and both lack a good leg drive and the clean, hard catch which is so necessary.

...Chick '05 defeated P. D. Lamson '05, 2 up and 1 to play, and H. C. Egan defeated W. E. Egan, 2 up and 1 to play, in the semi-final round of the University golf championship tournament. None of the scores were very low, although H. C. Egan played well on the last nine holes, coming home...

Throughout the season, the fielding has been the strongest feature of the work, but even in this department occasional lapses have...
...baseball practice yesterday comprised the usual batting and fielding work. The men were instructed in the same points of batting and bunting in which coach Wendell has been endeavoring to improve their work throughout the spring. Although not entirely satisfactory, the fielding practice showed considerable life, and was at times sharp and accurate...
