...rowed last year on the Halcyon crew at St. Paul's; he is one of the best oars in the crew, being strong and especially smooth in his work. Clark, Stone and Whitridge at 3, 2 and bow have all a tendency to clip and to be slow in their catch; they also lack power in their leg drive. Clark and Stone are new men; Whitridge rowed at Groton. As a whole the boat is well together but lacks power and is weak at the finish. The Newell second is distinctly inferior to that at the Weld, but the third...

Their batting was not so strong as that of the infielders...

...track was in very good condition but a strong wind blowing up the back stretch made the distance runs rather slow. Still the time in the short sprints and hurdles was very fair. Several new men showed up well especially J. G. Willis '02 who won the low hurdles and finished second in the high hurdles, and J. E. Haigh '03 who won the 100 yards dash in 10 1-5s. In the broad jump, C. D. Daly '01, sprained his ankle so severely that he was not able to compete. D. Grant 2M., won the open University...
