...view of these facts I was greatly surprised to hear reports to the effect that certain persons were giving large odds against Mr. Wendell, - in some cases as large as seven to one; and, indeed, this circumstance gave rise to such general comment that it reached the ears of a number of people who are rarely informed in regard to sporting matters. It seemed a pitch of folly which could not be explained...
...purpose to comment upon these facts, - the remarkable betting, the remarkable foul, and the remarkable accident to Mr. Lee.

...GODDARD will leave for his quarters on Lake Quinsigamond to-morrow, in order to have a week's practice over his course before the race. The contest into which he is about to enter with Mr. Livingstone is in no point of view an intercollegiate race between Harvard and Yale; it is strictly a private match. But as each of the contestants holds the single-scull championship of his college, deep interest will be felt in the result. We hope that all members of the University realize how important a place this race will hold in Harvard's boating annals...
