...promising sprinters is small. Blumer, who won a place in the 220-yard dash in both the Yale and intercollegiate meets this year, and R.C. Foster of the Freshman team are better in the longer dash than in the 100-yards. It will take a great deal of hard work to develop enough sprinters to bring the team up to the average in these events. The outlook in the quarter and half-mile runs is brighter. Merrihew and deSelding are closely matched in the former, while Jaques of the Freshman team and Whitcher should again give the University the advantage...
...game promises to be a pitchers' battle, and that being the case, the chances are slightly in favor of the University team, as Harvard's pitching staff is in better shape than Yale's. Hartford's work in the Cornell game was above criticism and there is no reason why it cannot be repeated. Coupled with a little of the batting and base-running ability shown in the Dartmouth game, such pitching will win any game...
...select the men for these two places the crew was sent down into Kimball's Cove this morning, and F. A. Reece '09, and G. G. Bacon '08, tried at stroke, and S. A. Fahnestock '08, R. S. Lovering '08, and Bacon at 2. Coach Wray superintended the work from the rail road embankment...
...work for all the crews was light today. In the morning on account of the rough water the University eight went a short distance near the shore, but in the afternoon the men covered about five miles accompanied by Coach Wray in his single. The stroke was kept down most of the time, except for one stretch. The shell did not appear to go as badly as might be expected, and it is hoped that within a few days the crew will be rowing well together again. Of course Cutler is considerably lighter than Fish and is not his equal...
...work of the crew yesterday with Cutler at two was reasonably good and in all probability no other change will be necessary. There remain seven days of rowing before the race and in that time the men in the bow will have a change to accustom themselves to the new order and should get together fairly well. The difference in weight and power which the new man brings to the bow will be hard to balance, but it is not an impossibility. Captain Richardson has done remarkable things with the crew already and we have the utmost confidence that...
