...most of whom have rowed every year while in college. At present their boat is speedy and as it now appears they will probably win the race. Their shell was badly damaged recently by being scratched, while passing under the new bridge by a sunken pile. E. Storrow is acting as stroke. The junior boat has made wonderful progress and will give all the crews a hard struggle. The men are well together and their shell is growing steadier every...
...second inning, both sides went out in one, two, three order, but in the third, the Harvard men, by a lucky bunching of their hits, a base on balls by Dalzell, and two or three errors of judgment on the part of the Yale fielders, managed to pile up five runs, making the score 7 to 0.

Nowadays, he is lucky if his last hours are spent within sight of the old pile! Will you kindly ask the parietal committee, or whoever has our welfare in charge, to institute some graded system, by which the classes should draw for rooms in order of their seniority. What is left after they have what they want, could go to the sub-freshmen. These boys have four years...
