Harvard played a rushing game throughout, and at this Gray did some excellent work. He starts off very quickly and keeps well on his feet. The play of Harvard's backs was the only thing that won the game, for the rush-line work was abomniably weak from start to finish. Newell and Emmons were the only men who played in anything like 'varsity form. The ends were very slow in getting down on the ball, and Exeter's backs repeatedly went through the centre...

...which will settle definitely who are eligible to play in the class games. This question caused a great deal of very unpleasant squabbling last year. It was the only disagreeable feature of the games and one which might have been avoided if adequate rules had been made at the start...

...varsity crew start today for New London at one o'clock. It may be criticised as follows: J. C. Powers '92, stroke, weight 165, does not start his slide quickly enough on the recover, and hurries his arms on the last part of the stroke. He is regular, and rows hars. No. 7, Kelton, weight 193, is somewhat clumsy with his oar, and on the stroke starts his slide too quickly. He is strong and is to be relied on to do hard work. No. 6, D. R. Vail '93, weight 180, follows No. 7 well in the stroke...
