...work. Clark, Stone and Whitridge at 3, 2 and bow have all a tendency to clip and to be slow in their catch; they also lack power in their leg drive. Clark and Stone are new men; Whitridge rowed at Groton. As a whole the boat is well together but lacks power and is weak at the finish. The Newell second is distinctly inferior to that at the Weld, but the third is a good crew and with a little more weight would give the first a close race...
...Gardiner has recently published "Forms of English Prose Literature," a new manual of criticism and composition primarily designed as a companion book to Professor Barrett Wendell's "English Composition." The style is attractive and the twenty examples well chosen; though not departing from the usual lines of an English manual, the book is evidently the result of independent study and reflection...
...first crews have now been unchanged for some time and have had enough work to shake well together. The second crews have been less fortunate. The Weld eight has sustained two losses within a day or two; Morrill at stroke was obliged to stop rowing on account of an attack of neuralgia and gave place to Locke, who, although a smooth oar, has less life and dash. Ivins at 5 was laid off on Saturday by a sprain, and his place was taken by Colby, who will row in the race. In the Newell crew, Gilchrist at 4, was yesterday...
...three games, defeating Holy Cross by 4 to 3 Amherst by 15 to 6 and Wesleyan by 2 to 0. Yale's batting was weak in all three games, and the fielding indifferent, except in the Wesleyan game, which Yale played without an error. The infield does not play well together, and has trouble in handling pop flies and bunt hits. Sharpe at first is steadily improving, and Quinby makes few misplays at second, but does not cover enough ground. Camp and Brown, at short and third, play brilliantly though somewhat erratically. The outfield has shown considerable improvement...
Since the southern trip Princeton has won three games by heavy hitting and effective pitching. Columbia was beaten 11 to 2, Lehigh 20 to 0, and Lafayette 16 to 0. Hillebrand and Scott are both pitching remarkably well. In all three games the fielding was fair and the batting was very strong. Meier, Hutchings and Watkins have been doing the best batting...
