...yards. With the ball on the first team's 40-yard line, Foster failed to gain and Lockwood made a poor forward pass, the second team securing the ball. After a few short gains, Taylor tried a drop kick for a goal which failed, Foster making a fair catch on the five-yard line. The second team, however, interfered with the catch, so the ball was advanced 15 yards toward their goal. Foster punted to the second's 45-yard line; and as the second team failed to gain, Taylor kicked back to the University eleven's 25-yard line...

...half-mile was commenced with the University crew leading by about 15 feet. Every man in the boat was swinging true and rowing in the best of form. Yale, on the other hand, appeared to be a little tired. Noyes at 6 was lunging with his blade at the catch, and Morse, 3, and Weeks, bow, were also out of time on the recovery. Gradually the University shell forged ahead. Filley raised his stroke and every man in the boat kept with him, even at 36 in the last few lengths. The whole Harvard crew finished strong, crossing the line...

Of the outfield Harvey had the most chances...

...bridge. There, they took their positions in the shell which had been towed behind the launch. Emmons was first tried at three and rowed down stream in the boat for about three-quarters of a mile. In the first stretch the boat listed badly to star-board at the catch of each stroke, but went more smoothly afterwards. On the way upstream Richards rowed half of the distance, before Morgan succeeded him. The boat rode very steadily when Richards was in, but seemed to lack the vigor which was evident when either Morgan or Emmons rowed. The poor showing made...

...loss of P. W. Flint '06, who was last Thursday declared ineligible by the Athletic Committee. On Friday he was replaced by W. W. Corlett '06. The boat is somewhat unsteady as Corlett has not yet got into the swing of the crew and is slow at the catch...
