...first Derby and Herrick attempted to hold the net, but they were continually forced into the back court by their opponents' superior volleying. In the second set they played from the back court, and won by their effective base line game. Their lobs and swift low ground strokes were well executed and hard to control at the net.

The most characteristic features of the views are the very numerous glacial ponds, the narrow, open valleys, the small rock-broken hills and the broad level salt marshes. Beautiful views are to be obtained along the coast at all seasons of the year.

...field by end running. Trott at left halfback on the second made good gains around Willard's end and often gained ground after being tackled. The defensive work of Bunting and Crocker prevented any gains around the other side of the line. Crocker's tackling was hard and low...
