...most sensational baseball games ever played on Yale Field, the Freshman team broke even with the Yale freshman after fifteen innings, the game being called on account of darkness with the score 2 to 2. The game was a pitcher's battle from the very start, and had it not been for fielding errors, neither side would have scored. McKay pitched the entire game for the Freshmen, allowing but few hits and striking out 15 men. Yale used two pitchers, Carr and Tommers, and it was not until the second man was put in the eighth, that Harvard scored...
...Bissell 2L. won the Carroll Cup race on Saturday in 7 minutes, 48 and 3-5 seconds. The race was rowed with a favoring wind and tide over the mile course from just below Harvard Bridge, upstream, to the Longwood Bridge. Bissell took the lead at the start and held it easily to the end, finishing 3 lengths ahead of J. W. Hall '11. J. B. Chevalier 1G. was third. F. M. Rackemann '09, who finished fourth, spoiled his chances by running into the buttress of the bridge near the start. He rowed a splendid uphill race, however, and pushed...

On the other hand, the boat has travelled poorly at times, and there seems to be some difficulty about steadying down after a racing start. There is still a tendency to clip the stroke and to slump at the finish...
...Freshmen won the match race with the Sophomores yesterday afternoon to determine which crew should be sent to the Henley Regatta Saturday. As the length of the course was not accurately measured, no time was taken. The crews got away evenly at the start, but about two hundred yards down the course number five in the Freshman boat caught a crab. This gave the Sophomores a slight advantage, but they did not hold it long. A half-mile from the start the Freshmen began to draw away, and just before Harvard Bridge they led by about a length. At this...
...weeks as beginning on Wednesday. This is due to the fact that the tables open on this day in the fall, but there seems to be no particular reason for continuing the system during the year. By charging half price for the first half-week, the Hall could start regularly on the Monday following the opening of College, and save a great deal of trouble and expense for the many men who naturally prefer to enter or leave the Hall on Monday morning in order to make arrangements with other eating places...
