...order of the Junior crew has been unsettled all spring, no one combination having been used for more than a week at a time. The frequent changes have severely handicapped the crew, and their time is none to good. Individually, the men are smooth oarsmen, but they do not work together as they might. Their slide work is fair, and the boat has plenty of snap and drive...
...only one of the field events, the broad jump. J. P. Long '11 won both hurdles and the broad jump; R. C. Foster '11 won both dashes; and Captain H. Jaques, Jr., '11 won both the mile and half-mile very easily, but in slow time.

Burlingame also won the pole-vault at 10 feet. The 440-yard dash was done in the very fair time...

Merrihew '10 was not allowed to start at all; F. M. deSelding '10 ran with a sore ankle; H. Watson '10 was beaten in slow time compared to that he made in the Harvard-Yale Freshman dual meet last year; and P. C. Lockwood...

Gardner finished strong and in excellent form three yards ahead of Rand in 25 2-5 seconds, very good time considering the fact that the track had just received a drenching and was very soft...
...dinner will be held at the Hotel Lenox this evening at 7 o'clock. H. R. Shipherd '08 will be toastmaster, and J. S. Davis '08 who is first marshal, will respond to the toast. "Phi Beta Kappa." The other speakers will be R. L. Niles '09, G. C. Good '09, E. R. Lewis '08, E. B. Sheldon '08, and J. H. Wheelock '08. By way of innovation, delegates from the chapters at Yale and Pennsylvania will be present...
