...work on the part of the coach and by a splendid loyalty to him in every member of the team. This has been the most striking characteristic in the relation between the coach and his men during the past two seasons. What has been accomplished in the baseball of recent years can be repeated and improved upon where necessary. We are glad the task has been assigned again to Mr. Pieper...
...days of class rushes, cane fights and similar barbarisms are gone by for Harvard undergraduates, for which profound thanks are due. What little excuse there remained for the rush has been absolutely done away with in recent years by the presence of persistent and vicious outsiders who monopolized a large share of the proceedings.

No one can estimate just how much the change has weakened the boat, but those of us who have no hopes for a victory are disregarding a very important consideration--Captain Richardson's indomitable courage and the unbounded respect in which he is held...
