Beyond the championship games there is no settled schedule for this season. Practice matches will, however, be played throughout the season with clubs, from the vicinity of Boston. It is expected that there will be a game with the Cambridge team Fast Day, although this has not been fully settled.

The remainder, those with Princeton and Stevens Institute, will be played away from home...
