...Cambridge yesterday and will at once begin practice for the games with Amherst at Amherst Wednesday night and with Pennsylvania in the Hemenway Gymnasium on Saturday night. The team will be strengthened this week by Linehan, who was unable to take the western trip on account of examinations.

Souther did the most commendable work, shooting two goals in each half; and Foster, although uncertain in his shooting, played a hard aggressive game.

The most encouraging feature of the work was the defensive play of the forwards who followed back far better than in any previous...

...these men only one or two are of exceptional ability. Although there are a number of other good men in College, they will have to do better than they have ever done before in order to equal the performances of some of the Yale team. Thus Harvard must rely solely on second, third and fourth places, and to win must have a large squad of men who will be satisfied with nothing short of success...
