...Wright & Ditson's in Boston. These tickets may be bought by the public, and each person may buy as many as he desires. They, however, do not admit to the Cornell, Dartmouth or Yale games. The tickets for these games will be sold by application in the same way as Yale game seats were issued last year. Application blanks will be issued later and special announcements of sales for the last three games will be made at that time...
...way of comparison of the two crews Harvard is perhaps physically superior and has the advantage of greater experience. The stroke-oars in both crews have never rowed in a four-mile race. Wallis stroked the winning Yale university four last year, while Cutler was the stroke of last year's winning Harvard Freshman eight. Both are very smooth oars and row a long, well-proportioned stroke, but of the two Cutler is a great deal the heavier and more rugged. By the time of the race both crews should be fast and in the best of condition. A prediction...
...King, as Coach Wray was following the other crews in the launch. The time was 13 minutes and 21 seconds, which is considered very fair as the crew rowed against a strong tide. No racing starts were tried, the men averaging about 30 strokes to the minute all the way. The Freshman four practiced racing starts and then rowed over the last half-mile of the course. The crew started at 38 and finished at 40, rowing about 32 for most of the way. Spurts were tried all along the course and the boat went well at a high stroke...
...covered the same distance. Later in the afternoon it was much cooler; the crews went out at about 6 o'clock. The water was almost calm. The University eight took a row down-stream to the three-mile flag and back. A stroke of 28 was maintained all the way until the last stretch before the boathouse, when it was raised as high as 42. Although the slide work was poor at times the crew went very well, and on the row home the boat moved along especially smoothly. A change was made in the Freshman eight in the afternoon...
...make use of one's rights in such a way as not to annoy others is the fundamental principle upon which all civilized society is built. Many of those who attended the concert in the Yard last evening, in the expectation of deriving pleasure from one of the few opportunities of hearing the Glee Club to advantage, went away disappointed solely because of the rowdyism of certain persons in Thayer Hall. Such a violation of the principle not only is against good breeding, but is contemptibly selfish...
