...winter, and ought to make this game an interesting one. Some of the individual members of the team have had much experience on University teams. The strength of the University team has not yet been tested by any games with outside teams; but, owing to its superior condition and frequent practice, it should win this game...
Long hard rows with frequent spurts have been given to the graded crews during the past week, in preparation for the race next Friday. The men are still hanging badly at the catch, but Coaches Vail and Stephenson expect another week will do away with the ragged work of the more inexperienced men.

Starr was tried at end, a position which he filled very satisfactorily. Foster, Newhall, Osborne, and Kennard, however, played the best game for the University team. Osborne ran the ball back...
