...days of last week, succeeding the stormy weather, were thoroughly appreciated by the rowing men, and the crews got in considerable good work. Everything is now in running order at the boat house, the floats are adjusted, and from four until six o'clock daily five crews may be seen on the river. The crews as a whole did better work, as soon as they took to the water, than is usual, owing to the fact that there are comparatively few entirely new men.

...April 2d the nine will meet the New Yorks on the Polo Grounds, New York. Tuesday, April 3d, the nine goes to Newark, and on the following day the second and last game with the New Yorks will be played. With such advantages as Yale enjoys it will be seen that our own nine is heavily handicapped in the struggle for the championship. In addition, Yale has practically the same nine this year with which she won the pennant last season. Only by the most zealous work on the part of our nine can we hope to make a respectable...

...cent.; 3, 3 per cent. Clergymen, 11, 5 1-2 per cent.; 2, 2 per cent. Physicians, 9, 4 1-3 per cent.; 5, 6 per cent. Other occupa ions, 8, 4 per cent.; 5, 5 per cent. From this schedule it will be seen that there are twice as many Academic freshmen as Sheffield freshmen whose fathers are professional men; while the Scientific department is up-held noticeably by physicians, and in large proportion by manufacturers and business...
