...hour and was as fast and lively as that on Thursday. In the punting practice, which followed Burr made some especially good kicks. All the backs caught the ball well, there being not a single fumble. The line up of the University eleven was the same that will start in the game today. After this the substitutes also ran through signals. Their line-up was: l.e., Bartels, Pruyn: l.t., Montgomery, Spear: l.g. Peirce: c., White, Barney: r.g., McFadon, McLeod: r.t. Fultz: r.e., Snyder Macdonald: q.b. Newhall, Hall: l.h.b. leouard, Nichols: r.h.b., Lincoln, Nesmith: f.b., Harrison, Craft Somes...

After the work in starting, the first eleven lined up against the second team and went through plays very slowly...

Brattle street, in the meanwhile, was making desperate efforts to overtake Waverley and might have succeeded, had not the Holworthy-Stoughton crew, which was rowing a much slower and steadier stroke, caught up and made its bump not two hundred yards from the finish. The latter crew proved to be one of the best on the river and would probably have bumped the Brattle street boat...
