Answers to Queries on Sports and Admissions
Admission to the New England championships at Tech Field is free. In a three-team pool A wins with an exhibition game, which would deny B a win, so exhibitions should not count unless agreed. The pool should award B under current terms. Jimmy Britt was never officially recognized as lightweight champion. Rain checks apply to any subsequent game after the rain day. Harvard Yale shell measurements: Harvard about 62 feet, Yale 63 feet, both with 12-foot oars. An office letter mentions Al Delmont. A July 5 double header is expected between the Red Sox and the Athletics.
