...first division racing yesterday, Mount Auburn Street again showed itself to be a fast crew, and after gaining slowly on Claverly from the start, made a bump before the second bend. Beck-Hampden-Fairfax also rowed well, and bumped Randolph a few hundred yards before the first bend was reached. Thayer got off well at the start and kept steadily ahead of Second Mount Auburn Street...
...should show up well from now on. R. Brown, Cutting and Harding are all good men. The backfield is not so certain. Cutler will probably remain at quarterback, and Corbett and White should have no trouble in holding their positions. Leslie and Long, their respective substitutes, are both fast halfbacks and valuable men. The third back is the most difficult to pick. Smith, who played regularly until the injury to his side, will soon be in shape again. Forchheimer, who at present is also out with a bad knee, is the next man. At present these two men are fairly...
Browne, who has not played in the last two games on account of injuries, will play at left end today. Forchheimer, who has shown up well during the last week's practice, will play at fullback. Although he is new to the position, he starts fairly fast, and hits the line hard. The practice this week has been devoted to working up good defense, and the improvement should be apparent in today's game...
...first team substitutes were lined up against the University eleven in the football practice yesterday afternoon for a 22-minute scrimmage. The considerable success which both teams had in working the forward pass was the most encouraging feature of the practice.

Browne '10 was in the scrimmage yesterday for the first time in several days, and he did some good tackling...
...holding. The Williams defense was so well carried out that forward passes were practically impossible, and none were run off successfully. Burr tried a beautiful long pass during the last half, but both Brown and Cutting were blocked and the play failed. Corbett and White played hard and fast, and Leslie and Long showed up exceedingly well, particularly Leslie, who picked his holes well, started fast, and went through the Williams line for long gains. Cutler seems to improve with every game, and in the second half did fine work...
