...freshman class will be surprised to learn how its crew is getting along. Every boating man knows that their material is good and judging from their performance last fall many have predicted great things of them in the spring, But at present their rowing is ridiculous, not to say disgraceful. They are vastly slower now than they were last fall! If, after six months training they are slower than they were when they began, how slow will they be after nine months? What are we to think of the coaching they have received...

The championship season for Harvard will open with the first game with Princeton at Princeton, May 4, and will close June 25 with the game against...
...last five or six days the running track has been in good condition and has been used for practice by the Mott Haven candidates. Most of the men, except a few doubtful ones from '88, are now taking light exercise daily. There are not as many sprinters as usual now at work. For the quarter and half mile runs there are about the average number of candidates, and an unusually large number of mile runners. There is also a good outlook for the hurdle and bicycle races. The field sports are not so flourishing as those of the track. More...
