...June 13.--The order of the first crew was changed today for the first time since the crews have been here. Meier was moved from five in the second crew to four in the first, and Ober went to bow in the four-oar. The Freshmen rowed early this afternoon to below the Navy Yard and back. Little improvement was shown in either time or recovery. At 6 o'clock, the first crew paddled to the lower end of the course, rowing a 28 stroke. The course was then rowed in 21 minutes, 45 seconds under good conditions. The first...
...Freshmen raced down stream. The second dropped out at the Navy Yard, a quarter of a length ahead of the first. At this point the Freshmen were leading by a length and a quarter, and dropped out at the three-mile mark, two lengths ahead. The first crew went on over the four-mile course and finished with a strong 28 stroke in 22 minutes, 5 seconds, the best time made thus far. On the way back to quarters the work was much smoother than in the race...
During the first six innings the game was mainly a pitchers' battle, and though enlivened by some fast fielding, was slow and uninteresting. Harvard scored in the second inning when Evans went home from second on Grant's single, and again in the sixth, when Giles reached third on an error by Church and was brought in by Mahar's single. Yale's two runs were made in the third inning, when Barnes made a two-base hit and Emerick a single. Both scored on Ford's single...
...eighth, Tweed reached first on Church's error. Dexter bunted along the first-base line, but reached his base safely, and Russell followed with another bunt. Tweed was put out at third, but Giles was hit by a pitched ball, and went to first, filling the bases. Mahar was then given his base on balls, forcing Dexter home, and on Evans' single, Giles and Russell scored. Mahar was let in on a passed ball...
...June 5.--The University and Freshman crew squads arrived here late yesterday afternoon, and with the exception of the second crew and the Freshman four-oar, went out at once for practice. The University crew rowed over the four-mile course at a low stroke in about 24 minutes. For the first two miles the Freshmen paced the University boat, and rowing a slightly higher stroke, finished a length ahead. Rough water and a head wind account for the slow time. The four-oar rowed only short, easy stretches...
