...Freshman crews have been well organized, and all ten reported. They rowed on the machines in relays of three and were under the supervision of Coach Haines and A. Beane '11. The lower crews were somewhat changed, but the first two remained the same and seem to be getting well under way. There are, of course, the difficulties of accustoming the Freshmen to new methods and of changing and correcting their faults, but even in the few days that there has been spring practice, much improvement can be seen. Getting out on the water will make a vast difference with...
...fast scrimmage against the Harvard Club seven at the Arena yesterday afternoon gave the University hockey team a victory by the narrow margin of 2 goals to 1. The team played in somewhat ragged form, and only several pretty stops by Wylde and some poor shooting by the Harvard Club wings decided the scrimmage in the University's favor. Baker scored against the Harvard Club after some clever stick-handling and a few minutes later a good piece of team-work gave the Harvard Club a goal. Fisher gave the University team the lead when he played the puck neatly...

It would be a salutary reform which would make the A.M. degree worthy of the prestige it enjoys professionally and even socially...
Undoubtedly it is good for Yale, as it would be for any university, to overhaul its system and see that the rules are literally obeyed. To make the new regime retro-active, however, is somewhat harsh and not wholly logical. To be thoroughly consistent, the men who played on former teams should be disqualified and their games forfeited. Since this is not within the bounds of either thought or execution, why cannot these five unfortunate men,--victims of little else than fate,--be re-instated and the new order dated from the present...
