...comparison of the average times made by the three upper classes shows that 1906 has the fastest team, with 1907 second, and 1908 a close third. These teams will race together in one heat. The Freshman team, which will race the Yale Freshmen, made a better showing than either...

We had, almost throughout the season, the attendance of a most efficient masseur, whose work...

Ruptures of the hamstring muscles, which are also common among sprinters, were in every case due to muscular exertion alone.
