...record of three victories, one defeat, and one tie was hung up by the Crimson baseball forces in their initial week of action. Cold weather caused the cancellation of the games with Boston University which was scheduled to usher in the season, and with Georgetown on the Southern trip. William and Mary, Richmond, and Catholic University were the victims of the Harvard singers while the Quantico Marines repeated their 1928 performance by handing Coach Mitchell's charges their first setback of the season. The game with Columbia on Saturday was called at the end of the ninth frame with...
Four victories and no defeats was the record made by the Harvard tennis team during the past week on its southern stay at Norfolk, Virgina. Two of the matches were won by clean sweeps while victory in the other matches came by scores...
...probably is extremely uncharitable to make any remarks about the dancing in this production. But facts are facts, and we here go on record as saying that said dancing is if anything more flat-footed and uninteresting than that of past Pudding shows.

The achievement broke two world's records: the salt water mark of 80.567 miles, set by the same man, and the fresh water mark of 92.834 set by his brother last summer in Detroit. The man was Garfield Wood, Gar Wood for short, and this was his answer to the disappointing race of a fortnight ago, won on points by the British speedfiend...
