...past season, there is good ground for expecting next year's record to show improvement over that of 1909. Yale's exceptionally well-balanced team will be much broken by the graduation of several reliable men, so that at present the chances of victory in the dual meet seem good. Concerning the intercollegiates it is much harder to predict, but it is enough to say that none of the other teams which made high scores in the meet will be kept so nearly intact...
...followed down-stream to the mile and one-half mark by the University four. The eight rowed in very short stretches about 30 strokes to the minute, and Coach Wray followed in his single scull, coaching the men on their individual faults. L. Withington at 5 does not seem to get his shoulders on very well at the catch, and Lunt's finish is not yet satisfactory. The whole crew is inclined to tear at the water at the catch instead of dropping the oars in quickly without jerking. In spite of these slight faults, however, the crew continues...

At such times the admission of alumni might be permitted without any appreciable loss in membership, -- it might even result in a gain. Such a change would seem to be both courteous to the graduates and in keeping with the broad principles on which the Union is founded...
...half behind the Freshmen, and the same distance ahead of the second four, was 11 minutes, 19 seconds. Hooper was still at stroke in the University four, and while the crew did well for the first mile, the second mile was rowed poorly. The crew did not seem able to raise the stroke, and was almost caught by the second four. Despite the fact that all the men in the Freshman four were rushing their slides and hurrying their work unnecessarily, the boat travelled fast and the crew gained steadily on the University four throughout the last mile...
Recent baseball scores, taken by themselves, would seem to indicate that the University baseball team is having a slump. This is not true, or is true only to the extent that the team is not playing quite the same game as in the earlier part of the season. The falling off is not to be accounted for by the over-training, over-confidence, or general listlessness which characterize the ordinary slump. It is due rather to the obstacles which have beset the team since the second Princeton game. First, there are the injuries to Briggs and MacLaughlin, which, however good...
