...Shead '93 (10 yds.), H. M. Wheelwright '94 (8 yds.) were both heat winners, but lost in the final. In this event F. W. Lord of the "Tech." who won third, broke the M. I.

...been through a hard final on one of Cambridge's hot June days, knows what it is to long for cooler weather. Whatever change is made cannot, of course, remedy the difficulty entirely, but it can help in some degree. The hot part of the day from ten or eleven on, cannot be avoided; it has got to be borne, but there is no reason why any more of the examination than possible should be made to come during the hot hours.
