...agreement of Harvard and Cornell to engage in sports is the absorbing topic at the quarters of the crews. It came as a big surprise to Yale, for nothing of the sort was anticipated. The matter has been pretty freely talked over since the news came in the morning papers. Robert J. Cook would not talk about the matter, as he knew nothing except from the papers. Favorable conditions tomorrow will probably lead both the Yale and Harvard crews to go over the four miles at speed...
...reports of presidents and treasurers of these colleges. From these reports I infer that at last four-fifths of all the productive funds of the colleges are invested in bonds and mortgages. Few colleges, and a few only, have a part of their endowments in stocks of any sort. A few of them also, notably Columbia and Harvard, have invested in real estate. The facts as to certain representative colleges are illustrative: Cornell University has about $4,000,000 in bonds and about $2,000,000 in mortgages; Wabash has property of $362,000, of which...

The meeting was the only one of the kind which has been held this year, and was especially instructive in showing the difficulties of this sort of research...

Fennessy and Watriss, the two most finished oarsmen in the crew, at 7 and 6 respectively, have the ability to pass up about any sort of stroke Captain Bullard chooses to set. Hollister is at No. 5, and Stevenson, when he returns, will be at No. 4. His place at present is filled by Fox '96. Damon retains his place at No. 3, while Shepard is moved up to No. 2. Lewis rows...
...other form of intercollegiate disqualification. The list of entries runs, of course, higher than in the class games, and among the competitors in the various events are sure to be all of Harvard's best men. The games, aside from being very interesting in themselves, will make possible some sort of comparison between the Harvard and Yale teams. The annual Yale games were held only a short time ago, and an excellent set of records were reported from them. With favorable conditions today, we may hope to see Harvard's track athletes do equally good work. For them...
