...long been regarded by the graduates of the College. Last year, by a skilful opposing of one college tradition to another on the part of the Faculty, the classes of '75 and '76 were led to promise entire abstinence from hazing; and for the faithfulness with which they have kept this promise they are deserving of praise. '77, too, with a consideration which has won for them the thanks of the whole College, respecting the powerless condition of their natural adversaries, have refrained from offering any of those provocations which have formerly been so successful in inflaming the Sophomore mind...

The men in the winning boat were: Belmont, '74; cox.; Wheeler, s.; Harding, '74; Wetmore, '75; Hall, '76; F. R. Appleton, '75; Hartwell...
