FEATHER-WEIGHT SPARRING.F. P. Clement, '88, H. D. Cheever, '88. Clement led off for Cheever's head but his blows were dodged by the latter, who got in a round shot on Clements' body. Clement, however, soon found an opening, and sent in a rushing blow with his right on Cheever's jaw. The second round was rather tame, neither receiving any punishment. In the third round Clement led off finely, following up quickly with his right, and succeeded in planting several blows on Cheever's face and body before the latter seemed to know what...
ROPE CLIMBING.G. A. Pudor, '86, had a walk-over in this event. In attempting to break the Harvard record, 20 7-8 seconds, he got entangled in the safety rope when near the ceiling, and lost a few seconds, finally reaching the top in 25 seconds. Mr. Pudor made a record of 22 3-4 seconds in this event last year...
LIGHT-WEIGHT SPARRING.First bout, E. L. Blossom, '88, and S. Coolidge, '86. Coolidge led off with his left, but his blow was returned by Blossom for the body. Blossom rushed his man and soon got in a right-hander which sent his opponent to the floor. When time was called again, Coolidge was rather groggy. Blossom, however, went at him as fiercely as before, and by hammering him with his right, succeeded in knocking him out, thus winning the bout...

In the second round, Clement led off with his left, following it up with his right, for his opponents head. Both men then got in several quick blows and appeared pretty evenly matched. In the third round Clement made several pretty leads, but Wright countered well, and drove his man before him. Clement, however, was quick in dodging and countering, and returned blow for blow. The bout was awarded to Clement...
...first minute this team was three inches to the good. This lead was increased to four inches at the end of the second minute, and five inches at the end of the third. At this point the seniors made a desperate rally, and got back some of their lost rope, so that at the end of the fourth minute the juniors had only four inches. By repeated heaves, however, the juniors brought the ribbon more to their side, and, making a tremendous heave at the last instant, won by six inches. The usual demonstration of class enthusiasm followed...
