Rowing at the Weld and Newell boat clubs is now fairly under way. Two eights went out from the Newell Club yesterday afternoon. One was composed of Seniors and Juniors and was stroked by F. L. Higginson, Jr., '00, and the other was a Freshman barge. Glendon, the new coach, will take charge of the crews this afternoon and will pay particular attention to the Freshmen...
...more care by the backs in taking their positions. Any advantage Bowdoin had through the aggressiveness of her backs, was more than offset by her weakness in punting. Not only was the centre-rush inaccurate in passing the ball, but the few punts Upton was able to make went barely twenty-five yards. Superior though Harvard was in this respect, the kicking on her side was by no means satisfactory...
...Sharp work by Ristine, Hallowell and Swain, and a fumble by Upton gave Harvard the ball on Bowdoin's forty-yard line.

Parker was tried at left halfback, Kendall went to right half, and Warren played with the substitutes. They all played a strong and fast game and made several long runs. The presence of Reid at fullback also steadied the back field to a great extent. Baldwin, a Freshman from Exeter, was tried at quarterback, but as he was not used to the Harvard way of snapping the ball back, he was erratic in his passing...
