...short time, but have been given long and hard practice, and on Thursday were sent over the two-mile course. The university crew is rowing in the following order: Stroke, Bogue; 7, Cross; 6, Miller; 5, Stubbs; 4, Judson; 3, Coffin; 2, Halpin, bow, Waterman; cox., Minor. A special effort will be made this year to develop a four-oar which will give Harvard a closer race than in the past...

Furthermore, almost every man on the squad was tried in the game, so that no true comparison of the two teams could be made. The playing was lively throughout, and, with some exceptions, remarkably good for so early in the season. In the batting, especially, the men showed marked improvement, and were more or less successful in acquiring the form which the coaches have been teaching them. Moreover, both the out fielding...
