...beat Cornell's university crew on Lake Cayuga is a commendable feat, but to beat Cornell for the second, successive year, and in the same afternoon to win the Freshman race is something to be justly proud of.

Particularly appropriate is this selection in that it represents the first step in the Harvard celebration of the Slinkspere tercentenary...
...relayed from Cambridge by the members of the Harvard Wireless Club to Lexington to be read at the Washington's birthday exercises, and a copy will be delivered to Governor McCall.
