...Bowdoin making many gains through the centre of the line by a formation somewhat resembling the old revolving wedge, in which tackle carried the ball through a hole made in the other side of the line. The gains thus made were not successive, however, and seldom of any considerable length. Harvard's line although showing increased ability to open up holes, in its interference was not effective enough, and the runner, in breaking through, failed in many cases to follow the interference designated by the signals. Few substitutes were played and the game was marked by an entire absence...

There is some sparkle in "By the Way," and the soliloqy of the Boston terrier, illustrated by P. Bartlett '02 is capital.

The University and Freshman four-oar crews were sent over the course for the first time together. The Freshmen were given two lengths at the start and finished a length ahead of the University four-oar. Shortly before dark the Yale university crew passed Red Top, going over a mile course in fine form. If the cool, pleasant weather only continues great improvement may be expected in the work of all the crews...
