...first and the second hold, Ingalls played excellent golf, finishing the round in 74, within two strokes of the amateur record for the course, and 6 up on bogey. White was off his game on the first nine holes, often slicing his drives into the rough ground, misjudging approach shots, and putting poorly. He improved at the turn, however, coming home in 39, but was unable to cut down Ingalls' lead, as the latter continued his faultless game, making the last nine holes...
...crews in general are not hopelessly inferior to the first crews. The CRIMSON believes that however careful and intelligent the grading of candidates may be there is always the chance that the second squad may, in subsequent development, equal the first; it believes that if the second crews do approach the ability of the first; the best of them ought to be allowed to take part in the final races. This was stated, and is held, as a general proposition--true this year and every year, true of the first and second crews as groups, not of any one part...
...hands and body before sliding forward. Partly as the cause and partly as the result of this method, was developed a hurried, laborious, jarring, recovery. The new stroke, it is hoped, will avoid these drawbacks by means of a recovery in which hands, body, and slide all shoot forward, approach full reach, and turn back as nearly in unison as possible, the body reaching forward a little farther than formerly and finishing only slightly back of the perpendicular. A generally simpler, easier, and more deliberate recovery is the expected result. The body, moving forward upon the knees, acts...
...formation of a trust called the Harvard Riverside Associates, whose purpose is to gain control of the land along DeWolfe street between Mt. Auburn street and the Charles River, so that it shall not be developed in any way detrimental to the possible construction of a suitable approach to the University from the Charles River Speedway. This trust at present has a capital of $400,000, and its holdings, together with those of the University Associates, place the larger part of this land in the hands of graduates...
...some way, the unwritten law discouraging Freshmen from smoking pipes and cigars on the street, seems to have been extended to include the Union. This, I think, is a mistake. The success of the Union depends, in the last analysis, upon succeeding Freshman classes, and if they approach the Club in the right spirit, and can be made to feel that it is their home as well as that of all other Harvard men, they will make the Union an even greater success than it has been heretofore. Therefore, I think that, in the Union, all class as well...
