...second crew will be handicapped by the loss of Balch and Whitney on account of illness, from 7 and bow, respectively, but the crew as a whole is full of life and dash, well together, and should give the University eight a very hard fight. The third crew has also suffered much from repeated changes. Its chances, however, of making a hard race, have greatly increased since Wiggins has been stroking the boat, although the crew is hardly together and the slide work at times is poor...
...defeat such as the cross-country team experienced yesterday does not occur without a good reason. It is hard to believe that the trouble is with the runners, because they are drawn from the University and Freshman track teams of last year, both of which made excellent records. Moreover, our cross-country teams heretofore, some of which have had superior material, have won very few races. We believe that the fault lies with the irregular system under which the sport is carried on, and that a change in the present short-sighted economy of the Athletic Association by which...
During the secret football practice in the Stadium yesterday afternoon, the first and second teams had a long, hard scrimmage.

...scrimmage was long and hard, the second team playing together exceptionally well, and making the first team work for every gain. Minot was sent over the line twice, P. D.

Coach Campbell was dressed in football clothes and spent a long time with each of the ends...
...University football team lined up against the second team for a long, hard scrimmage during the secret practice yesterday afternoon. The work of the team was very encouraging, the backs tearing up the second line for long gains and scoring four touchdowns. O'Flaherty and McKay were not on the field, but they are not to be out of the game for long. O'Flaherty will be back again tomorrow. The line-up was shifted in a slightly different manner from that of the day before. Captain Fish had not returned from West Point and P. Withington was given only...
