...members of the 'varsity crew are all in good condition except R. H. Stevenson, who is expected to be in shape to row by Thursday, when the boat houses will have been fumigated, and, it is to be hoped, again in condition to be used. Neither the 'varsity nor freshmen crews will begin work on the water till the boat house is out of the hands of the health authorities. In the meantime recourse to long walks will be had for exercise...
...surprising how slow class feeling is to manifest itself in the shape of subscription towards the support of class teams. Again we have unpleasant evidence of this in the present state of the freshman crew finances. Some eighteen hundred dollars of the amount needed to meet the expenses of the season are still unsubscribed, and this when the receipts from the freshman musical clubs can not be expected to be large and when those from the nine will be practically insignificant. There can no longer be any excuse for withholding or delaying subscriptions. The freshman crew has too often been...
...good account of himself, and fill creditably the large hole left vacant by Mackenzie, captain of last year's nine.

Easton will occupy centre-field when not in the box. His good batting has earned him this position. In right-field Altman and Bradley will alternate with Small as out-field substitute. Bradley is also putting up very speedy ball, and, like Payne, will be one of the stars...
...their accommodation in the Fogg Museum would necessitate the sacrifice of too much of the very limited space at disposal in that building. The strength of the first argument might well be doubted, as indeed might that of the second in view of Harvard's small possessions in the shape of works of art. But there is sufficient truth in the assertion of lack of space to force on our attention once more the deplorable failure of the Fogg Museum to serve the ends for which its donor intended it. "The collection and exhibition of works of art of every...
...varsity crew will not row during the first three days of this week but will instead take very light exercise in the shape of cross country walks. The work of the men on the rowing weights has been very severe during the last week and Mr. Watson's idea probably is to give them a little breathing space before regular work on the river begins. On Saturday the men went out by twos in the pair-oar and were watched by Captain Bullard in the absence of Mr. Watson...
