...meeting was brought to a close by a tug-of-war between Harvard, '91 and Technology, '92. Harvard's team was composed of G. D. Higgins, anchor, G. B. McLellan, No. 3, J. F. Bass, No. 2, and P. Y. DeNormandie, No. 1. Neither team gained on the drop, but an unguarded movement of Tech's anchor enabled Harvard to get 3-4 of an inch which they held until time was called...
...important result will be the increased interest which the intercollegiate character of the meeting will arouse. The interest heretofore has been aroused largely by personal and class feeling. Neither of these elements will be lost, but a third more powerful one will be added, that of loyalty to the University. Yale and Tech. have many good indoor athletes who will enter, and undoubtedly in many events, especially in the tug-of-war, the contests will be close...
...number of candidates for the crew has, by a series of dismissals, been reduced to sixteen. About the first of March the men will go to a training table, when the number will be reduced to twelve. Neither Carter, '88, S., Gill, '89, nor Corbin, '89, will row in this year's crew. As a matter of fact the crew will be made up of men who have had little experience in the University boat. Carter does a great deal of the coaching while the men are at work in the tank. In regard to the stroke...
...Harvard were desirable, it could not be arranged this year. Ninety-two must certainly row Columbia this year, for in the last two years Columbia has defeated our freshman crews. It is not wise for three crews to row a race over the course at New London, and neither Harvard or Columbia will admit Yale to a "three-cornered" race. It is also out of the question to row a second race, as Yale wishes, for the strain on a freshman crew would be too severe and the expense of a longer stay at New London too great. Before...
...frequent celebrations, the noisy ebullitions of students, due to the delight of being "all through," are neither a cause of edification nor enjoyment to their less fortunate neighbors who are still compelled to plod the tiresome road of the "grind." Again, the man who surrounds himself with more reserved books than he can use at once, that forsooth, when he wishes to study them he may not be obliged to wait, is doing a positive injustice to his fellow-students. Thoughtlessness has been made to serve as the mask for a multitude of sins in the past...
