...University gymnasium team was defeated last night by a Freshman and graduate team by the score of 23 1-2 to 21 1-2. The meet showed that the University team needs to perfect and make smoother its several combinations. E. M. Clark '20 was the best man on the scrub team.

...comparison of the two crews Harvard, as last year, is superior to Yale in physique, weight, and experience. Harvard, at present, seems to be by far the smoother rowing crew. The Yale shell, when going at the low stroke of 27, is not well on its keel. Many individual faults are apparent, and the body swing of the crew is poor. Wodell at 7 has a poor finish, and Campbell at 4, weighing over 190 pounds, is very awkward. The latter's rowing makes a bad break in the boat. In spite of these faults, the boat seems to travel...

...short paddle taken by the crew, Meyer appeared to swing well with his stroke, and Moffat seemed effective at 5, where he can use his long reach to advantage. Yesterday's bow combination proved smoother and more effective than the former arrangement...
