...Freshman tennis team defeated Worcester Academy on the Divinity courts yesterday afternoon 7-0 for the second clean sweep of the year. As had been expected the visitors provided a more severe test for the yearlings than did Browne and Nichols last week, but though most of the matches were more closely contested than were those of the previous contest, only one went to three sets...
...University second tennis team went down in defeat before Oakley Country Club at the latter's courts at Waverly by a score of 6 to 2 Saturday. Displaying unexpected strength the club team allowed the Crimson net-men only tow victories in the singles and made a clean sweep of the doubles matches...
...yard run, Tech has in Gurney, Poole, Chittick, and W. L. Smith a quartet of runners which will probably be able to make a clean sweep of the nine points here.

Merrill, however, is counted on for points in the 880-yard run and it is doubtful whether he will be able to handle both the quarter and half on the same day. Although no University men placed...

In the shot-put, too, Captain Brown, Clark, and Saxton form a trio that appear, from results this spring, to surpass Blatter and Dexter, Tech's best entries, so the University may score a clean sweep in this event.

Chapman, former Exeter quarter-miler, defeated both Whaton and Chute in last year's trials for the international meet and ran second to Rudd in the event itself. Vander Pyl and Wilson are two other runners to whom the Blue is looking to win points in the quarter this year...
