...game in the second half was intensely interesting from an Andover point of view. It was thought that Exeter would rally. She may have tried to but the result was hardly noticeable. Andover kept up her rapid, clock-like movement. Hodgkins and Woodruff gained repeatedly by short rushes, which, every now and then were enlivened by long, brilliant runs, and in a startling short time Hopkins made another touch down and Knapp added two points by kicking the goal. Score 12 to 4. Beautiful rushes of 20 and 30 yards by Hopkins and Woodruff brought the ball dangerously near Exeter...

...gratifying to note the remarkable growth of the institution popularly known as the Harvard Annex. Since the Annex was opened twelve years ago its growth has been steady, consistent, and rapid. The success which has attended this institution is another attribute for Harvard and Harvard methods. It is true, indeed, that the Society for the Collegiate Instruction of Women has no legal connection with Harvard University; but there is in fact a much closer tie between them.

...minute, Harvard rowing 36. The difference between the two styles of rowing was very marked from the start. The Bowdoin men made no attempt to keep their backs straight but caught the water with a jerk without regard to form. The boat kept her keel owing to the rapid strokes but stopped every time the slides were rushed back. Harvard went away in good form, recovering slowly and keeping the boat fairly steady. On the stretch to the Harvard bridge the race was about even although Harvard began to forge slowly ahead. Just before the bridge was reached Bowdoin spurted...

...Hovey got in behind him very quickly, Bates threw with remarkable speed, and the man was out. It was a beautiful play. Dean also played a very pretty game. Morrill's nine fielded strongly except in the seventh inning, when they went to pieces and made seven errors in rapid succession. Their pitcher was also effective, and also watched bases carefully...
