...meeting of the dormitory crew captains, last evening, it was decided that the inter-dormitory races should be bumping races, similar to those rowed at Oxford and Cambridge. The advantage of these races is that any number of boats can race, whereas in the regular straight-away races not more than four boats can row abreast. The object of the race is to bump the boat ahead. That boat is then out of the race and the successful crew is eligible to compete in the next race...

Squires has been doing light work and will probably be able to play in a few days. Several former players were out, among them J. Lawrence '01, who coached White and Parker in goal kicking...
