...Friday, teams A and B had a brisk, hard-fought scrimmage in which both sevens showed to advantage. Wylde received a broken nose which may keep him out of the game for a few days, Stanton taking his place. Curtis returned to the line-up and played a hard and consistent game. The stick-work of the players is not all that might be desired, but with the rapid development in team-play and accuracy in passing shooting this defect should be overed to some extent by Wednesday when University will meet the Queen's College seven at the Arena...

In the fourth quarter Dean...
...Cornell crews defeated the University and Freshman crews in two close and hard-fought races in the Basin yesterday afternoon. After being held in the boathouses for two hours by a heavy wind, the university crews started at about quarter of seven o'clock. Harvard had the better of the start, and quickly opened a three-quarter length lead; then when the stroke settled to 40 a minute for Harvard and 36 for Cornell, the University crew held its advantage as far as the Harvard Bridge. There Cornell had begun to creep up and soon passed Harvard, although still rowing...
