...finished yesterday. The tournament is to continue two weeks longer, and it is hoped that new men will not hesitate to enter. The field back of Divinity hall is arranged as follows: There are two rings, one on each side of the field, on the 25, 35, and 45 yard lines, six rings in all.

Marvin, '89, is the only man who has kicked a goal...

...Athough from this summary it would appear that the chances of Yale's winning the cup are fair, yet it is rather early to predict with any degree of certainty. Sherrill, '89, ought to win both the one hundred and two hundred and twenty yard dashes, with Lee of Harvard, second in the former, and Moen, of Harvard second in the latter.
