...weather was excessively hot today the crews all had very light work in the morning. The University crew paddled down-stream to the Navy Yard, and back in easy stretches at a slow stroke. The University four followed the eight down-stream and back, and the second four took a light row up-stream towards the Yale quarters. The Freshman four rowed down-stream a little beyond Cows Point and back, and the eight covered the same distance. Later in the afternoon it was much cooler; the crews went out at about 6 o'clock. The water was almost calm...
...slow stroke, and the university eight was taken down to the railroad-bridge in the launch and rowed back in a single stretch. The two university and freshman four-oars rowed a half-mile race and the freshmen were given a start of a length. The freshmen came in second. No time was taken...

A base on balls was given to Van Vleck, forcing Sweeney, and Badger's bunt brought in Mallory on a close decision with the third run of the inning. Fels flied out and Badger was thrown out at second on Murphy's grounder to Magner. In the fifth, after two men had struck out, Sweeney secured a base on balls and after stealing second scored when Mallory hit for two bases. The game ended without further scoring, though Howes tripled in the eighth...
...work yesterday morning was light. The University eight covered about four miles in all. There was another change made in the University four, Sargent replacing Hooper at stroke. Hooper was shifted to 2, and Waite returned to stroke of the second four. The University four went exceedingly well, Sargent's work at stroke in this boat being of great value. In the afternoon the Freshman eight went over the two-mile course up-stream. No time was taken. A low stroke was maintained, except for occasional short spurts. The boat went fairly well, but the men were inclined to lose...
...fairly successful season so far. It has defeated Georgetown, 6 to 3, and Brown, 5 to 0, and has won a majority of the other games. It was defeated by the University team in the first game by the score of 5 to 2; but it won the second game by the score of 2 to 1. The Yale team has been in an unsettled condition, and frequent shifts have been made. As a result the batting has improved considerably in the last few games. Yale defeated Princeton in the first game, 6 to 0; but in the second game...
