...those of the two Nines, the Lacrosse team come out with theirs. This seems to me an infringement of the well-understood feelings of the College towards those men who, by hard work and well-earned victories, have added so much to Harvard's credit. It is proper enough that these men should have what little distinction they can get out of their position, for it is the only reward their fellow-students can be stow upon them. The Lacrosse team is a good one, but they have never played a match game since their organization. Let them wait till...

...styles of the two oarsmen were widely different. Goddard with his 14-inch slide pulled a clean and powerful stroke, while he kept his shell on a perfectly even keel. Livingstone's boat rolled, and he had a trick of bending himself up at the catch which was enough to take the wind out of any man. The Yale man looked plump and well-fed, but had evidently had very little of that training which gave the Harvard man his fine and clean-cut figure...
