...poor weather. Although they had their first work on the inlet on February 22, the crews were only able to get out about twice a week during the whole month of March. In the course of practice during this month Coach Courtney found that he did not have enough good men to make up two satisfactory university crews, and on March 15 he took Kelley and Weed out of the University boat and placed them in the junior university crew at No. 3 and stroke respectively. This junior crew was eligible for the race for junior intercollegiate eights...
...Mott's work, with more accuracy but less picturesquencess and dash. In some passages the sentences are monotonously short. "Gentlemen and Seamen" treats of the old merchant sea-captains in New England and of Salem, the old seaport for trade with the East. The feeling in the article is good; but the imperfect workmanship and the tendency to moralize give the effect of a school composition. "The Friend," a sonnet, though not quite musical and at the end not quite clear, may be called a "lovable" poem for its fine spirit and its unpretentious truth. The other poem, "The West...
...inches, thereby creating a new intercollegiate record. The men who now hold the record are J. L. Barr '09, C. S. Campbell and F. T. Neison, both of Yale, E. T. Cook of Cornell, J. F. Pickles of Pennsylvania, and C. Vezin, Jr., of Princeton. If the weather is good today, this record will undoubtedly be beaten again. The distances in the broad jump were surprisingly poor, but this may be partially accounted for by the heavy take-off. Considerable change in the positions as they stand at present will probably take place this afternoon. The hammer-throw is another...
...Harvard was close to Kirjassoff at the finish, but could not quite overtake him. Pennsylvania again showed up strongly in the second heat, which was won by Paull in 1 minute, 58 4-5 seconds. Whiteley of Princeton led a great part of the way and was a good second at the finish. Spitzer of Yale took third, shutting out Vilas of Yale who was just ahead of Boyden of Harvard. The third heat was run in slower time, Frantz of Princeton winning in 2 minutes, 2 2-5 seconds. Sanders of Columbia and Baxter of Dartmouth shut out Guild...
...first heat of the 120-yard hurdles was very encouraging, as Rand won in 15 2-5 seconds, showing better form than at any time previously this year. Dwight of Princeton easily took first from Welch of Syracuse in the second heat. Besse of Harvard was a good third. Howe of Yale won the third heat in 15 3-5 seconds, with Piper of Harvard second. Hartranft of Pennsylvania made the same time in the fourth heat. He was closely pressed by Robbins of Yale, who took second. The fifth heat was a walk-over for Talcott of Cornell...
