...Freshman crew squad has now been rowing long enough for the general faults of the candidates to be clearly apparent. The men seem to be awkward, and though they are well up to the average in strength, they do not apply their power well. The crews are still very unsteady.

...University baseball team won easily from Bowdoin on Saturday by the score of 14 to 0. The hitting still showed the great improvement that has been made since the Williams game, and the fielding was on the whole satisfactory. In base-running alone did the nine seem to be weak. Carelessness on the part of the coaches and the base-runners cost directly at least two runs, and all the runners seemed to lack their usual speed...
