...brightest achievement of recent years in Harvard rowing was the signal victory of our Henley eight which captured the Grand Challenge Cup in the last regatta for that prize held on the Thames. The other entrant which had won its way to the finals was the Union Boat Club crew, composed of Harvard graduates. The former eight was coached by Robert F. Herrick '90, the latter by William Haines. A pair better fitted to work in harmony and effectively direct the University's rowing policy could not be found...
Yale's prospects on the track are the brightest in several years. While some of last year's heavy point-winners graduated in June, there remain good men in every event. If there is any cause for worry, it lies in the fact that there is a lack of good second and third-string material in some of the events. The following men did not return this year: W. F. Potter, hurdler, H. Harbison, shot-putter, R. Cook, broad-jumper, R. A. Douglas, high-jumper, and F. G. Hartswick, high-jumper. This leaves a large number of veterans...

The offense, however, is centered around Spiegel, one of the speediest men on the gridiron today. He shines brightest on long end runs, usually started from the punter's position and once he gets by the opposing end, he is likely to prove dangerous. Paterson at left tackle is a place-kicker of ability, having many scores to his credit from as far back as the 60-yard line...
