Very recently several members of the football team have lost sleep because of unnecessary noise in their dormitories late at night. The result has been that the development of the team has been retarded by the poor condition of these men. It would seem unnecessary to ask members of the University to see that no more harm of this sort is done...

...game yesterday was almost a repetition of Monday's game with weak batting and poor fielding. Team B obtained a good lead in the first four innings but was forced to play its hardest to prevent A from winning.

Team A, 1 0 0 0 4 0 2 0 1-- 8 7 9 Team...
...continued failure of the University football team to give indications of appreciable improvement is causing a general lack of confidence among those who have been watching the work from day to day. Occasionally the monotony of practices in which fumbling, poor defense and errors of every kind are the only features, is broken by a day of good spirited playing, but these exceptions are few. This whole state of affairs, moreover, is in decided contrast with the situation last year, when at this time the fundamentals of football had been thoroughly drilled into the men and the general development...
Work at the Weld has not progressed as well as at the other club. The orders of the upperclass crews have been frequently changed, and smoothness is therefore lacking. The Weld Freshmen are at present in very poor shape. Not only are the men mostly small and inexperienced, but they seem to lack desire to improve. In consequence, it has been impossible to grade them finally. The second Freshmen have damaged their shell in a collision with a bridge, and are now using a barge...
