...Canoe Club is to be congratulated on the entire success of the races that took place yesterday under its direction. The number of entries was large enough to make the races interesting, and the events were well contested. The Canoe Club has shown unusual energy this year, and now holds a more prominent place among the University clubs than ever before.

There is little excuse for this, as the game is a thoroughly interesting one, and when a team works...

The encouragement infused into a team by the presence and cheering of a large number of their class-mates is a potent factor of success, and it would be a pity, indeed, if the freshmen here could not muster as large a delegation to go to New Haven as their rivals brought to Cambridge last Saturday. Besides the duty which devolves upon every member of Ninety-one to support his team to the best...
