...which to train, while that of the eleven is daily growing shorter. Now that the class races are over, it would seem that the football men on the crews should devote their attention to football. Unless this is done, the chances of the team for following the example set by Ninety-one at New Haven last fall, will be much diminished...
...leaving Lee winner. Lee then cleared 5 ft., 3 in., but failed at the next jump. 5ft., 6 1-2in. The quarter-mile run was done in very good time. J. H. Rhoades, W. H. Wright and G. L. Batchelder were the contestants. Wright set a very smart pace and kept the pace straight through the race, winning in 54 1-5s. Rhoades was second. The pole-vault was a walk-over for W. N. Duane. The 220 yards dash closed the meeting. M. I. Motte had the pole, then came J. P. Lee, O. K. Hawes...
...fall class races took place this afternoon on a course about three-quarters of a mile long, commencing at Gloucester street and ending at the Union Boat House. The time set for the race was 4.15, but it was 4.30 before the crews made their appearance, the freshmen first, followed by the juniors and seniors.

To this small total Lowell responded with 67, of which total Burns and Gibson were credited with 20 and 10 respectively. The bowling of Ellis and Comber were the features of the game. The wicket played badly...
...After their disastrous defeat at Cambridge, the Princeton team played without snap, and in an altogether discouraged way when they met Yale. All they cared for was to get through without disgrace, and then-then to set every possible wheel in motion to win in 1888. What is the result? They have brought back two of their team of 1886-two men who were noted then as their strongest players, one of whom had been elected captain of the team of 1887, but had been unable to return for that year. They have made arrangements for the most systematic management...
