This year's Freshman team is much stronger in the sprints than last year's. J. P. Spang, Jr., J. L. Foley, R. Tower, and C. H. Tilton can all be depended upon for working up into fast time for the dashes. Foley ran a good race in the interscholastic 100-yard dash last spring, and won second place in the 110-yard and 220-yard dashes in the Freshman meet in the Stadium last fall. Tower took first place in both these Freshman events, and won second place in the 40-yard dash of the Winter Carnival...

Fitzgibbons, who won the 3-lap race and ran on the relay team in the Winter Carnival, are also expected to show up well in the half-mile...

Courtney, S. Coolidge, Jr., and M. P. Robinson are also showing encouraging possibilities...

Hitchcock, Jr., '14, who won first place in the forty, hundred, and two hundred and twenty yard dashes, all in very fast time, thus scoring to total of 15 points. J. Greenough '15, with a plunge of 58 feet, made a very creditable showing...
...outlook was dubious at first, but inch by inch ground was gained, until the press, the political bosses, and the railroads had been overcome. The New Movement was fast becoming a necessity, because new economic conditions had arisen which demanded changes, and the people were beginning to realize the fact. The first step taken was to slacken the momentum of the opposition. The second and harder was to establish new working machinery as each part had to be adjusted carefully in order to run smoothly...
