Since the arrival of the squad at Ithaca on Thursday the University crew has been rowing twice a day, for the most part taking very light work. The crew has been together now for over three months, and although the weather conditions have been unusually poor this spring, the crew has developed into an exceptionally powerful and fast eight. Since the Columbia race on April 17, the order has been unchanged except for the absence of R. Cutler for one day and the temporary illness of Waid during the last few days. The men are much better together than they...
This year the Cornell crews have been very seriously handicapped by poor weather. Although they had their first work on the inlet on February 22, the crews were only able to get out about twice a week during the whole month of March. In the course of practice during this month Coach Courtney found that he did not have enough good men to make up two satisfactory university crews, and on March 15 he took Kelley and Weed out of the University boat and placed them in the junior university crew at No. 3 and stroke respectively. This junior crew...
...Barr '09, C. S. Campbell and F. T. Neison, both of Yale, E. T. Cook of Cornell, J. F. Pickles of Pennsylvania, and C. Vezin, Jr., of Princeton.

Considerable change in the positions as they stand at present will probably take place this afternoon. The hammer-throw is another event in which improvement is looked for today. Talbott and Horr are left to fight...
...sixth with two out, when Dana hit to Reed, who threw far over Warwick's head into the bleachers. There should have been another run in the eighth. Currier singled, and was advanced a base on Aronson's sacrifice. The latter was safe on the first baseman's poor throw to Dillon, who covered the base. MacLaughlin struck out, and Dana knocked a fly to right. Currier might have scored but started before the ball was caught and the run was not allowed...
...baseball team defeated the Holy Cross second team on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon by the score of 8 to 7. The University team played good ball throughout, making 10 clean hits to their opponents' 4. Holy Cross second had a good string of pitchers but their fielding was very poor. Everts and Long pitched well for Harvard. The score by innings: Innings, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R. H. E. Harvard, 2 1 0 0 0 2 3 0 x--8 10 3 Holy Cross...
