Gardner Tilton '20, of Lexington, will lead the University team, while Ulysses Ridley '22, of Brookline, is the captain of the Freshmen. Both men excel in the dashes and the relay, although the former is also in the diving events. It was decided that beginning on Monday both teams, will practice in the tank of the Boston Y. M. C. A. instead of in the one at Cambridge which is not a regulation pool. The only definite dates on the swimming schedule as yet are February 8, when the University will meet Andover at Andover, March 1, when the Freshmen...
...Rogers also deserve great credit for their work with pen and brush. The Lampoon has always had a high artistic standard. This reached the height of its glory in the Yale Game number for 1915, and the present board, if given time, could doubtless produce something to excel or even surpass that production...
...Virginia eleven on Soldiers Field this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Considering the University squad's crippled condition and the formidable record made thus far by the southerners, Harvard will be very fortunate to pull out a victory. Virginia sends up a team which man for man will probably excel the University in a number of positions. Except for Stillwell, an end, who is slight and tall the men present a very symmetrical line-up; each man experienced, big, alert, fast and strong. This eleven last year won the championship of the sough and two weeks ago today, by using...
...pole-vault, and L. K. Moorehead '18, C. P. Heffenger '18, and J. Coggeshall '18 in the long distances have already proved themselves able. Of the relay team R. U. Whitney '18, V. F. Likens '18, and D. M. Little '18 are the most likely to excel in the 440. E. E. Silver '18, also of the relay team, and W. Moore '18, will probably be called on to take care of the 100-yard dash. Other promising men are R. Horween '18 in the shot-put, G. R. Cogswell '18 in the half-mile, and M. Pratt...
...analysis of the power of either team in the form of a man to man comparison of the players indicates that the strength of one eleven approaches that of the other to a remarkable degree. Of the ends Brann and Hardwick excel in the blocking of the second and third lines of defence, although Stillman, Higginbotham, and Coolidge have shown ability in keeping their opponents out of the play. Coolidge and Hardwick possess the greatest ability in getting down the field quickly under punts and tackling their man, both Stillman and Brann frequently missing the runner through insecure tackling...
