...this slight lead was soon cut down and before a quarter of a mile had been rowed Harvard took the lead and settled down to a steady pace of 33, a stroke which was maintained for two miles. At the half-mile the lead was one-third of a length, and after the first mile had been passed Harvard was about two-thirds of a length ahead.

...Yale defeated Cutting in straight sets, while Gardner easily won from Allinson of Haverford. Gardner and Sweetser came through the second round, winning from Holden of Yale, and Thayer of Pennsylvania, respectively; but Nickerson was defeated by Johnson of Pennsylvania, the winner of the championship.

The only members of this year's team besides Hicks to remain are C. L. Lanigan '10, third-baseman, J. A. MacLaughlin '11, second-baseman, and R. H. Aronson '10, right-fielder. Of the substitutes, E. N. Davis '09, pitcher, and D. Crocker '10, second-baseman, will not be back. Several others will return, however, and should prove valuable men to fill in the positions left vacant...
