...plainly seen. A long hall with lockers around the four sides will occupy most of the floor, the space on each side of the stairway being used for bathrooms. The lower floor will be devoted to the storing of boats. Two large doors open from this floor out onto a large platform from which the floats are reached. Over this platform is a long balcony on which the hall upstairs opens. The boathouse will be finished the last of March or the first of April...

Hurd and Finney did well and Peabody exchanged long kicks with Terry. Soon Yale was again forcing and Kimball missed a kick on his own end. This gave Yale much ground. Kimball was tipped over after making a kick and partially stunned, but with great pluck continued to play throughout the game. Harvard had it "down" within the ten yard line, when Flanders broke through and securing the ball...
