...Several good formations were used that will develop into sure ground-gainers with sufficient practice. The forward pass was worked with perfect success once, and failed another time. The line-up follows: FIRST ELEVEN. SECOND ELEVEN. Groves, l.e. r.e., Clifford Dowey, l.f. r.t., Holt Fisher, Kelly, Douglas, l.g. r.g., Strong Knapp, c. c., C. Amory Blake, r.g. l.g., Stow Loslie, r.t. l.t., Gaddis L. D. Smith, r.e. l.e., Paine Potter, q.b. q.b., Wigglesworth Pierce, r.h.b. l.h.b., Yarnall Frothingham, l.h.b. r.h.b., Ralch, Pratt Winston, f.b. f.b., Tryoa
Hartford and Hicks, who have done some remarkably good pitching this year, will form a strong pitching staff for next season. R.G. McKay from this year's Freshman team will also prove a valuable man. Of the other pitchers on the University team, D.O. Slater '08 and D.C. Brennan '08 will graduate. Lanigan, who pitched a few games this year, will probably be used in the box very little next year...
...secondary men in the field events this year with considerable success. Stephenson and Bangs will be missed from the shot-put next spring but Little and Burr with another season's training should be able to hold the majority of points for Harvard. Pope and Harwood will form a strong team in the high-jump, with the addition of several promising Freshmen. Little and Ruch, together with Dick and Long of the 1911 team, are the most promising of the broad-jumpers, but Yale will have a good jumper next spring in Kilpatrick. There will be plenty of room...
...brief summary of the material already developed shows the team to be fairly strong in the hurdles, the middle distances, and the shot-put, high-jump and pole-vault. There are a few sprinters and broad-jumpers. A victory over Yale or a creditable showing in the intercollegiate meet can hardly be hoped for unless more and better men are developed in the dashes, the distances, and the hammer-throw. A great deal of Yale's victory and Harvard's success in the field events this year was due to the improvement in the material already at hand by means...
...prospects for a strong University crew for next year are very bright. Only one man, J. Richardson, Jr., '08, the captain, who rows number 7, will be lost by graduation. It is likely that one of the members of this year's crew will be changed to number 7. To fill the vacancy will be P. Withington '09 and R.M. Ellis '09, of the University four-oar, as well as R.W. Cutler '11, L. Withington, Jr., and other members of the 1911 Freshman crew. Several of the members of the upperclass crews will be available another year as material...
