...first race, the first Weld, which is also the first Freshman boat, took the lead at the start and held it all through the course, rowing a splendid race until near the end, when it showed poor form. It nevertheless beat the second Weld by about three lengths. The second Weld rowed well, however, and was an easy second.

Another feature of the backfield work was an 85-yard run of Campbell's through a broken field for a touchdown. From present indications Campbell is interchangeable with the first string backs, his speed doing much to counteract his lighter weight. Potter ran the team most of the time...
