...work of the crew was most encouraging; in fact, it is considered to be the best the crew has done since its arrival here, and there is now no doubt that the present order will be permanent. Cutler's stroke was long and well timed, with the result that all the men behind him rowed a longer stroke, the slides were well controlled, and the boat moved along with hardly a check between strokes. P. Withington at 6 fitted in well and finished in good condition. It the crew continues to improve as indicated by yesterday's work, it seems...
...characteristic fault of the crew throughout the latter part of the season. At the outset, the material and prospects were remarkable; the crew in its early stages seemed to be further advanced than last year's eight. Of late the rowing has fallen off, and the crew in its present stage is probably not as good as last year's--not only that, indications are that it is no better than Yale's. This is certainly a revelation, considering the foundation Yale had to go upon--principally last year's second-rate freshman crew. If the stroke is at fault...
...voted that inasmuch as Mr. E. C. Carter '00 had returned to this country, the committee devote its efforts towards raising money to send a man to China to investigate conditions for establishing a Harvard School of Medicine. The plan for establishing such a school was first presented by Mr. M. A. Edwards '04, and Mr. W. S. Whittemore '04, two Harvard Medical School student volunteers. In the spring of 1909 this plan received the support of the Faculty of the Harvard Medical School. Mr. Eliot has from the first been in hearty sympathy with the plan...
...first time since the Cornell game at Ithaca on May 29 the University team will present its regular line-up as MacLaughlin has returned to second base. A new batting order will be tried this afternoon, with Simons in fourth place and Aronson in eighth. Hartford and Hicks will probably share the pitching, both today and Saturday. The former will start the game this afternoon. The practice yesterday and the day before went smoother than for some time and the team should be able to play its best game from...
...Present indications are that there is nothing to hinder the team's rapid development. The pitchers are at their best, and the infield should become settled this week. Yale is expected to be the hardest-hitting team seen on Soldiers Field this year, but if the infield gets back the speed and accuracy it is capable of, there is no reason why we should not win, always provided we can hit. In that connection all that can be said is, the batting is appreciably stronger than last year...
