...nine plays the Amherst freshmen, and the game will doubtless be one of the best that the Ninety-one team will play in Cambridge. The Amherst freshmen beat the Yale freshmen last year, and from what we can hear, we judge that this year's team is fully as strong as the one victorious over the Ninety team at Yale. Besides, the Ninety-one nine plays its first game with the Yale freshmen next week, and all the encouragement possible should be given to its members. For this reason, we hope as many men, both freshmen and upper-classmen will...
This afternoon Harvard meets Princeton in her first championship game of the season. Our nine has strong individual players who, in spite of the disadvantage they have suffered in being unable to meet efficient opponents, have begun to play well together. We look with confidence for good work both at the bat and in the field, for the nine has done faithful work ever since Christmas.

...sophomore boat or not, it is to be reprehended, for it takes from the race what it ought above all things to have-equal advantages for all the crews rowing. Fortunately, the afternoon was much clearer and pleasanter than the morning gave promise to, and, though the wind was strong and the water rough, still the crews rowed in good form and the finish was a close one. To the victors of the hard-won race the congratulations of all are due, and to those who followed after we offer our sympathy-the most to those who were farthest...
