Princeton, Pennsylvania and Michigan are closely matched for fourth place.

The University team relies on seven or eight excellent performers to win the majority of Harvard's points, while Yale and Cornell have more evenly balanced teams.

...score boards have been put up in the middle of the Stadium, the one on the left to record the track events and the one on the right for the field events.

A complicated tie for the other points is likely to result between Harwood, Pope and Lawrence of Harvard, Canfield and Reiley of Yale, Rossman of Cornell, Horrax of Williams, and Lane of Pennsylvania...
