...race which was on but one other programme. Undoubtedly, the fact that Jarvis had not been in a condition for use has much to do with the poor showing in athletics Harvard makes this year; but we hope that the comparison, so unfavorable this year, may be changed next spring, and that the Athletic Association may again meet with the success which it once...
...prominent feature in Harvard's infield. Latham played superbly in the out-field, making some fine running fly-catches. Leeds played short-stop without errors, and made some valuable assistances. On the Manchester side Snigg proved to be the most troublesome pitcher the Nine have had to face this spring. Carl caught very well, and Cogswell played first base without error.

The expense of providing cups of much value as personal prizes for the members of the winning crews would be too great for the present financial condition of the clubs, since at present all the available funds are needed to buy the boats and to establish the system, as now improved, on a firm basis; and accordingly, the customary pewter trophies will probably be given. The two large cups, however, of which we give some account, confer a marked honor and glory, which renders them prizes more...
