...although the swim test is no longer in force, Harvard ought not consign itself indefinitely to an educational regime that administers only to the mind.

In the first game, Harvard could not hold back a dominating 10-1 run by the Bulldogs, who eventually...
...with this meet was to hand Yale a solid loss and get closer to Princeton. While they may have their hands on our streak right now, we have really strong freshman and sophomore classes, both showing a lot of potential.” The weekend races provided a good test for the young Harvard squad. With 12 sophomores and 10 freshmen filling the ranks on the women’s side, Saturday’s finish was an optimistic place to start for a team, which, according to Saretsky, has “much better things left to come...
