...very strong team and have been playing good ball of late. About the middle of the season Pennsylvania had a bad slump and lost a number of easy games, but a short while ago the nine was entirely reorganized with good results. In two games with Princeton, the team broke even, though the last contest was a walk-over for Pennsylvania by the score of 7 to 2. Yale and Holy Cross have also been defeated, but Brown won from Pennsylvania...
...Jones won the half-mile in 1 minute, 54 2-5 seconds, breaking the intercollegiate record of 1 minute, 56 seconds, made by E. B. Parsons of Yale in 1905. The running of T. S. Berna of Cornell in the two-mile was almost as wonderful, as he broke both the intercollegiate and collegiate records and established an American record of 9 minutes, 25 1-5 seconds. The former intercollegiate record for this event, 9 minutes, 27 3-5 seconds, was made by P. J. Taylor of Cornell in the Stadium two years ago. The other two new records were...
...days. The men were well together and rowed a good race throughout, especially in the last mile. The second eight also rowed well, E. Curtis at stroke driving the crew hard. The Juniors rowed in good form, but maintained a low stroke. Number 5 of the Sophomore crew broke his rigger a little below Harvard Bridge...

Two new Harvard records were established and close competition was the rule in all the events. P. R. Withington '12, running from scratch, broke the University two-mile record, made by H. Jaques, Jr., '11, in the dual meet with Yale at New Haven in 1909, by 12 1-5 seconds, his time for the distance being 9 minutes, 34 3-5 seconds. T. Cable '13, the other record breaker, threw the 16-pound hammer 150 feet, 7 8-10 inches...
...Billings '12, with 2 yards handicap, won the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds, and running from scratch broke the tape in the final heat of the furlong dash in 22 2-5 seconds. In the quarter, half, and mile runs, the handicaps were too large for the scratch men to do better than secure second places. B. M. Preble '12, starting from scratch in the 880, covered the distance in approximately 1 minute, 56 seconds, and H. P. Lawless '13, scratch man in the mile, went the four laps in 4 minutes, 28 seconds...
