...First Weld took the lead at the start, and held it without difficulty to the end. For half a mile the First Weld and the First Newell drew away from the others, but at the bridge the Second Weld drew quickly up and gaining steadily passed the latter at the mile mark...
...suppose only those of us who were forced to sit at the end of the field Saturday could fully appreciate the great superiority of the Yale cheering, which must have much encouraged their team. This was partly due, no doubt, to the fact that their cheerers were better massed, but that alone does not explain it, for the volume of the Harvard cheer was greater than that from the opposite stand.
