...prominent in rowing affairs fail to exhibit any very enthusiastic appreciation of the new departure. The fact is that many valuable men will be kept from trying for the eleven, or, if class games are to be played, from the elevens if the new plan is put into operation. It is doubtful, too, if the short season of training thus obtained will be of any great benefit to the candidates for seats in the 'varsity boat. At any rate, the 'varsity crew of last year made their brilliant record without any aid of this nature. As rowing men know only...
...which was held last year, leads us to hope this season for one of increased interest. Many of the best tennis players yet remain in college, while the freshman class presents several men who are already well known as players of exceptional ability.

The motion was then carried without a dissenting voice amid a great applause and enthusiasm. Mr. Kimball stated that it depended entirely upon the new athletic committee whether...
...students present at the foot-ball meeting last evening showed great activity in rushing to the defence of that much abused sport, yet something more than empty words will be required to put a team worthy the name into the field. After the enthusiasm displayed, the college has a right to expect that Jarvis Field will be well tenanted this afternoon...
