...time before the race. The Senior crew is the farthest advanced; their blade work is good and they row well together, but have a tendency to slowness in starting the recover. The make-up of the Junior and Sophomore crews has been considerably changed lately, but they have nevertheless improved greatly in the last few days. The Law School crew has not attempted to adopt the new stroke introduced this year; but in spite of their brief period on the river they are rowing very well...

On the offensive the University eleven was several times forced to resort to punting and was once held on downs. A conspicuous illustration of its unreliability on the defense was given at the out-set by the success of a trick play by the second, on which Dodge made 20 yards...
