Five University crews and seven Freshman crews wet out on the river yesterday. It was a trifle windy but on the whole the water was very good. The University crew did not row together well and seemed to hang at the catch; but this is to be expected so early in the season...
...rush which netted a goal. The University men were individually fast and got the puck out of the corners well, but their passing was uncertain and shooting very inaccurate. They so far outskated Dartmouth, however, that at times it seemed that the game was waiting for the Green to catch up. Huntington was close on the puck no matter where it was and prevented many attempts to get within striking distance of the University goal...
...sure Professor Copeland has read and lectured there, but he has been an exception. Even his success as an exception has not stirred the Union to a sense of what it is losing. There are many professors in this University who have favorite topics, which we can only catch glimpses of in their courses, and can never fully enjoy, for they are either off the subject, or are else in too light a vein for the most serious hours of work. If we could only hear the professors let loose in some of these fields, we should not only pass...
...downs. Wendell failed again, as he was tackled by Spalding. Felton punts to Howe, who runs the ball in 15 yards. Philbin makes 5 yards through centre. Philbin on next play is thrown for a loss. Camp punts to Harvard's 48-yard line, where Huntington makes a fair catch. Reynolds loses five yards on an end run, but on the next play Wendell plunged through centre for six yards.

Camp, of Yale, should outkick any man Harvard has, while the Harvard backs can catch punts better than the Yale backfield men. This is Yale's greatest weakness, the handling of punts by the backfield, and unless remedied will prove fatal next Saturday as it did today, for the Harvard ends follow the ball well...
