...that a matter which has been the subject of so much discussion and deliberation, is now practically settled, and it only remains to arrange the details. Both the Columbia and Yale freshmen have exceedingly good crews, as their records in the recent class races show; and we ourselves have seen what the Harvard freshmen can do; so that there is no doubt but that there will be a close and exciting race. This will be the first time that anything of the kind has been attempted, and we are glad to know that the matter has had the most careful...

...Haven games. The two-mile walk is not an event now contested in New York, but Mr. Bemis' time promises a good mile in the intercollegiate games. It was unfortunate that the record in the 110 yards dash was simply tied, and not broken. A warmer day would have seen it held by Harvard.
