Freshman crew work started this fall with the interdormitory races. These proved successful in bringing out a great deal of material, and arousing interest. When the regular work began on February 16, 120 men reported, making a record in the history of the University. Hard work and keen competition have made this year's eight seemingly one of the best ever developed here. M. Wiggin, the regular stroke, has been elected captain, and he has behind him an exceptionally heavy and strong crew, and one which rows beautifully...

And now Coach Haughton, taking charge in mid-season of a baseball team which had already lost its captain, has led it to triumph. With the victory from Yale...

Crews A and B practiced for about a month, and wound up their fall work with a mile and seven-eighths race in connection with the regular fall regatta on October 29. Crew B won by a very scanty lead...
