...score at the end of this period was 10 to 6 in Harvard's favor. Currie excelled during this half and scored two goals on long shots. In the second half the Holy Cross team braced and scored 14 to Harvard's 6 points. They played a harder, faster game during this period and their basket was not often in danger...
...behind Matthews. Perkins was never in the race, from start to finish, and came in about ten lengths of open water in the rear, while College House was about twice its distances behind Perkins. The only bump in this division was made by Hollis-Holworthy-Stoughton, who rowing a faster stroke, overtook Grays before the first bend was reached...
...eights under Coach Stephenson, Randolph is probably the best, as nearly all the men have had experience. Westmorly also represents considerable rowing experience, and is improving faster than almost any other crew. If they continue to develop they should row Randolph a very close race. Matthews is also showing up well...
...still too cold and windy on the lake for rowing, when the crew went out again at 6.45 o'clock, the men were again confined to the Inlet. Although Coach Wray accompanied them in a launch, he was unable to keep very close to them. A faster stroke was held than in the morning, and all the men showed clean blade work.
