...postponed class races were rowed Saturday morning, April 16, over the Back Bay course, down stream, under fair conditions. 1900 won by a length and a half in excellent form. '98 was second, half a length in front of '99, who finished very weak. 1901 brought up the rear with their stern barely overlapping the Junior boat. The time was 9 minutes 52 1-2 seconds. The four crews caught the water well together, '99 taking the lead, and holding it for about three-quarters of a mile. At the bridge the race seemed to be between them...
During the past ten days the work of the Senior crew has been less promising than previously. Their time is not what it might be, nor are they rowing very well together. Their watermanship is fair, however, and their physical condition good...
...cheering. Toward the end of the exercises, some prominent graduate, standing to the right of the statue, will make a very short address, welcoming the Seniors into the ranks of the graduates.

The music was bright and catchy throughout and the dancing was very good, the libretto, however, was dull and pointless. The music and dancing bid fair to be the leading features at the regular performances. The costumes and scenery were very artistic. T. Stensland '98 and W. S. Parker '99 as Bungus, King of Spontania and Corcoran Van Brunt, Professor of Histeria...
...four times at bat. Foster hit for three bases once and once for a home run, Laughlin made a double and a triple and Haughton a triple and two singles. Taken all in all, it was the hardest hitting the 'Varsity has done this season, and is a fair indication of the improvement that has been made in this direction during the past few days. All of the hits were clean, the longer ones being line drives out of the reach of the out-fielders...
