...year's victorious crews and nine will be held on Friday evening. A procession, headed by the crews, the team and the band will form in the Yard at 7.30. After marching around the Yard, and to President Eliot's and Professor Hollis's, it will go to Soldiers Field, where there will be a bonfire. Those who desire torchlights can obtain them, filled with oil, for twenty-five cents at Brine's. To pay for oil barrels and a barge for the teams and incidentals, it is necessary to raise fifty dollars. Subscription books have been placed at Leavitt...
...back field, quick and clever as Gierasch was, his interference for his fellow-backs was weak. Although Kendall and Warren were effective in hurdling their opponents yesterday, their style of running high will be fatal against a strong eleven. Fincke and Parker were up to the standard...
Warren returned the next kick-off. Sharp work by Ristine, Hallowell and Swain, and a fumble by Upton gave Harvard the ball on Bowdoin's forty-yard line.

Three two-inning games were played. The play was sharp and spirited, and while the batting was very weak, the fielding was excellent. Of the pitchers, P. N. Coburn '02, made the best showing. He had speed and very fair control, striking out men in every inning which he pitched. Of the new men, F. Jacques '03, caught well behind the bat, and made a number of good stops...
