Now that the equipment of the club has been made thoroughly modern a large proportion of its matches will he held on home grounds...

...their stroke, but lack the hard biting catch so marked in the Yale crew; they do not catch hard enough or quick enough. The crew has also shown a tendency to slug and yank the oars through the water instead of sweeping them through with a long, steady pull. These faults, however, are fast becoming eradicated by coaching, and today the crew is rowing more smoothly and with more power.

...University lacrosse team defeated Pennsylvania Saturday in a well contested game by the score of 5 to 1. Pennsylvania started off with a rush which resulted in one goal in the first two minutes of play. Before the defense could pull itself together four more shots were thrown at the net, all of which, however, were stopped by Kendall who played a brilliant game throughout.

...miles, he soon recovers, and is able to take part with effectiveness in two, and in some cases three, races in the same day, and to repeat the process the day following. I have yet to see or hear of the man who was able to pull two hard four mile races on the same, or even on consecutive days with justice to himself, and yet I doubt if he feels any worse immediately after the race than the man who has just finished a hard mile and a half.
