...first annual field meeting of the Brookline Athletic Club took place on their grounds at Cypress Street, Brookline, last Saturday, and proved, on the whole, successful. The management, however, was at times inefficient. The result was that the first contest was not called until after 3 o'clock P.M., instead of 2 o'clock, as advertised, and the last three or four contests had to be run in darkness so great the contestants were totally indistinguishable one from another. Wendell, '82, won the 100-yards and the 1/4-mile run, the former of which, however, he nearly lost, through the track...
...took the wind, giving Britannia the kick-off. During the whole first three-quarters the ball was kept close upon Britannia's goal, and they were forced to touch back for safety several times. Within a few minutes from the beginning of play, Smith kicked a goal from the field; and again, before the end of the first three-quarters, he kicked a second goal in the same way, the ball having been passed back to him each time.

The employing of a man to take care of the track during the summer months would result in affording opportunity to our athletes to begin training as soon as the term opens...
...Club, which promises to prove a most welcome addition to the lamentably small number of desirable athletic clubs in this vicinity. The club is now laying a 6th of a mile cinder track on the Brookline Play-ground, which will probably be completed in time to admit of a field meeting this fall, which, it is possible, may be open to all amateurs. The officers are as follows: President, N. H. Hammond; Vice-President, M. P. Spaulding; Treasurer, A. S. Arthur; Secretary, Harry G. Cushman; Directors, Alan G. Mason, G. B. Clarke, F. L.
