...last heavy work in preparation for the Annapolis race next Wednesday was done yesterday, when the University crew raced a mile and seven-eighths, paced for the first mile and a quarter by the University second crew and the last half-mile by the Freshmen. On the start, opposite the Union Boat Club, the first crew drew away from the second, although rowing a lower stroke, and after the first quarter-mile led by a length. The University crew was rowing about 32 and the second about two points higher. This lead was maintained for the next half-mile...

...would seem as if, the Faculty assumed in each man a certain Jekyll and Hyde dual composition of character. Those nobler qualities of the Jekyll side, desire to succeed; to master and to win are to be directed to the studies alone, while the baser Hyde characteristics, half-heartedness, hypocrisy of purpose and the famous Harvard indifference are to be exercised only on the sport.

Yale's single score was the result of a scrimmage in front of the goal, in which Jennings shot the ball through. In the second half the ball was kept well in Yale's territory but the University forwards were unable to score. For the University team Wendell and Munroe played a good defensive game, while Brooks was very fast and aggressive on the offence. Hart, Jennings and Wick were the most effective for Yale...
