...Mott Haven games in New York last spring, the H. A. A. was not represented in the hurdle race, but, from the present outlook, such will not be the case this year. It was felt last year that much depended on the short flat races. Yale and Columbia had fast and experienced hurdlers, while Harvard had none at regular work. Hurdling is a race which requires quite as much "knack" as physical qualities. With such a handicap it was thought unwise to sacrifice any of our sprinters to a probable failure. This year, however, a new hurdle race has been...
...will be seen by the above list of candidates that, although a strong nine can be formed from the material at hand, our chances against Yale's veteran nine are slim. The outlook is not particularly encouraging. However, with plenty of material from which to work, Captain Henshaw is capable of forming a winning team, aided as he is by the able advice of ex-Captain Willard.

The names of the men who are trying are: Baker, Clarke, DeNormandie, Garceau, Lawrence, Mason, McClellen, Nichols and Peckham for rope; Higgins and Tallant for anchor. The eighty-eight team will probably represent the 'Varsity at Mott Haven...
...outlook for the Princeton nine this year is unusually good. Strenuous efforts are being made to develop the individual bent of each man, and specified diet and regular hours for exercise are prescribed. The men until recently have been considerably hampered in not having a good cage for practice, but now through the combined subscriptions of alumni and undergraduates an excellent one of large dimensions has been erected. It is to the discredit of Princeton men that subscriptions have been raised, not only tardily, but in such small amounts. Several alumni agreed to donate a thousand dollars provided the undergraduates...
