...ball in play on the 25-yard line. The first three plays gave Bowdoin a first down. Fish and G. G. Browne spoiled the next play, tackling Farnum for a five yard loss. A long punt bounded over O'Flaherty's head and Frothingham ran it back along the side lines 20 yards to Harvard's 40-yard line. A double pass, O'Flaherty to Frothingham, gained two yards. Frothingham got twelve more outside tackle and then punted to Kern, who made a fair catch on Bowdoin's 26-yard line. An end play was stopped by Huntington, a centre...

...weeks later in the season the University team was a far more finished and powerful machine. The game, however, was by no means disappointing. There was considerable team work, and element which is very often wanting in the early games, and time and again the runner was pulled along many yards after he seemed to be stopped...

...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.

...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, Voorhees of the four replacing Faxon as coxswain. This crew went over the two-mile course up-stream, but was not timed. A racing start was tried, the crew going off at 38, and then the stroke...

...done since its arrival here, and there is now no doubt that the present order will be permanent. Cutler's stroke was long and well timed, with the result that all the men behind him rowed a longer stroke, the slides were well controlled, and the boat moved along with hardly a check between strokes. P. Withington at 6 fitted in well and finished in good condition. It the crew continues to improve as indicated by yesterday's work, it seems very likely that the change will benefit the crew in spite of its late date...
