Harvard's linemen, only one of whom has had first string varsity experience and that in a different position than he now occupies, are much smaller physically than those of former years, and in consequence, less apt to shine in the upstanding, hand-fighting game, and the fact that Robb, a Harvard sprint champion, has been assigned one of the end positions and another fast man the opposite wing position, would indicate that there will...
...week-end attraction Coach Roper staged a practice game last Saturday afternoon between his first eleven and the second string line-up. It was the first time that these two teams had opposed each other in scrimmage and the 32 minutes of actual playing time were full of action.

Phelps '27, a quartet of Coach Davidson's 1927 moundsmeu, will take on the pitching work, with H. R. Jones '26, I. R. Duchin '27, W. G. Seaver...
According to an announcement by W. S. Blanchard '25, University crew manager, there will be a slight snakeup in the boats next week with the intent of shaping several crews of first string calibre. It is doubtful, however, if a definite first eight will be selected this fall, although it is the intention of the coaches at present to keep the shells in the water until the ice forms...
