...well. The difference in weight and power which the new man brings to the bow will be hard to balance, but it is not an impossibility. Captain Richardson has done remarkable things with the crew already and we have the utmost confidence that the crew will be many seconds faster on the day of the race than any one dares hope for now under the existing conditions...
...London has been a profitable one and the University crew's prowess over a four-mile course has been fairly well tested. In both of the time rows held last week, the time was fair, considering conditions, and from all accounts the crew could have rowed several seconds faster had there been occasion.

Then Foster carried the puck down the rink unaided and made a claver pass to Dick, who scored. The last goal for Harvard was made by Dick on a clean shot from...
