...Harvard, 180, not out. The feature of the game was Lowry's brilliant batting for a score of 114, not out, probably the first century ever made for Harvard. He showed perfect form, not giving a chance, while his hitting was clean and accurate. St. Paul's main strength lay in the batting of the masters who played on the team, their combined scores being 172. Bradley's bowling was excellent, considering the fact that the wicket was distinctly favorable to the batsman. St. Paul's went to bat first, and when their last wicket was downed there was only...

The practice in kicking has been very encouraging, in the number of long kicks made in the games. The line men have had a good deal of drilling in the rudiments of position play and have had chances...
...Freshman eights rowing on the river every afternoon, four at the Weld and six at the Newell. The crews have received a great deal of attention from both Vail and Donovan, together with some individual pair-oar practice and improvement has been noticeable from the first. The main object in the coaching, thus far, has been to get the men accustomed to their positions in the boat, and to instill into them the first principles of good oarsmanship, rather than attempt to develop any speed.
