...team will play the sixth game of its schedule with St. Paul's School at Concord this afternoon at 4 o'clock. The game should be close and well contested with the chances favoring St. Paul's. The Freshman team has been showing steady improvement and has developed a strong defence and excellent team-work, but the shooting is still inaccurate. St. Paul's has made an excellent showing so far this year, having defeated both the Crescent Hockey Club of Boston and St. Mark's, and losing only to the St. Nicholas Hockey Club team of New York...

Though much handicapped by lack of practice they played a hard game at all times, and gave indications of becoming one of the best teams in years. Both teams played a very strong defensive game, which made it extremely difficult for the forwards to shoot effectively. Washburn turned aside several hard shots and with Hicks, who made the only score in the middle of the first half, excelled for Harvard...
...meeting at 50 State street, Boston, this morning at 11 o'clock to take final action upon the nomination by the Corporation of Professor Abbott Lawrence Lowell '77 as President of the University. There is little doubt that Professor Lowell's election will be confirmed, and there is a strong possibility of a unanimous vote by the Overseers...
