Captain Capper will have no trouble in taking care of the half next year, but there are no others who can be sure of placing. In the mile and two-mile runs, Harvard will be weak. B. S. Carter '15 and C. Southworth '15 are best in the latter event, Southworth scoring in the Yale meet this year and Carter last year. W. W. Kent '16 and H. G. MacLure '15 are the strongest in the mile event. The former was prevented from entering the meets this spring because of an injury...

The shot-put is weak, for no one was able to make a sufficient distance to land among the winners of the Intercollegiates. C. E. Brickley '15 and H. R. Hardwick '15, however, should continue to take points in the dual meets...

The games so far this season have been won by excellent pitching and timely hitting rather than by any spectacular fielding or consistent work at the plate. Hazlett, who has proved to be a tower of strength behind the bat, has played a fine defensive game, besides batting well when hits meant runs. Durgin on first, is playing an air-tight game in the field, and his batting has also been of the utmost importance to the team. Several times this year...
