...That the members of the team have worked hard during the spring and winter months cannot be denied; but neither can the fact be ignored that such self-sacrifice has now become an essential requisite to success. The date of the Mott Haven games is now drawing near, and though none of us can foretell the result, we can all hope to see the former prestige of Harvard in track athletics fully and unquestionably restored...
...part of the sophomore boat or not, it is to be reprehended, for it takes from the race what it ought above all things to have-equal advantages for all the crews rowing.

Overwork is not usually the bane of freshmen baseball managers, but perhaps the present one seems an exception. It is interesting, though perhaps a trifle provoking, to know that no games whatever have yet been arranged for other days of the week. Such laxity is certainly deserving of the severest censure. The baseball season has now been open for the past three weeks, and during all this time only one game had been...
