Seventy-one men are now reporting daily for Freshman crew practice. They are working regularly on the machines, but little apparent progress has been made so far, the men showing lack of ability to master the slides, the chief fault being slowness on the recover. The practice will be continued through the mid-year period from 3.30 to 5.30 o'clock daily, and any new men weighing 155 pounds or over, who wish to try for the crew, may report at the above mentioned hours...

...length and an explanation of some strange conversations and unaccountable actions would save it from being classed with the other stories of the issue. "Senor Costa's Diplomacy" and "Henderson" suffer equally from want of originality and poor narration. "The Wild Duck" partakes of these characteristics and the added fault of being "poetry...

Parkinson's playing at centre was aggressive and effective, but was shadowed by his lamentably poor passing. LeMoyne at guard, although a Freshman, played a game which would have done credit to an older and more experienced man, and in him the University has a guard who will prove...

...Princeton in rushing. The offense showed great speed, strength and team-work, and was at times invincible. Hogan, Bloomer, Shevlin and Kinney were used to advance the ball almost as frequently as the backs, and proved that Yale's offensive game is versatile as well as powerful. With the fault of fumbling eradicated, the Yale eleven is likely to prove not far inferior in strength to the remarkably team...
