Struggling gamely with that characteristic Harris Lspirit against stronger and more experienced competitors, A ,our men, under the able instruction of Coach McCormick, were able to defeat seven of their nine adversaries and score a close second in the championships. The season started auspiciously by our victories over Stuyvesant, Manual and Commercial. Harris was jubilant, and all looked forward to the point trophy of the championships. But, as usual, pride came before the fall, and when we fell we landed with a thump. The Commerce and Clinton teams came, saw and conquered, leaving ruin in their wake. In spite of this, our boys took a brace and in two practice meets defeated Mount Vernon High School and the sailors from the North Dakota. In the final and most important event of the year, the championships, we took second place. Only the fast swimming of the Clinton veterans kept us from the highest honors. Both our relays took places, giving us a start off of four points. Emanuel took first in the dive, as was expected. In the fifty, Bosworth furnished Clinton's speedy captain a worthy opponent and was only beaten out for first place by a brilliant exhibition of swimming by the latter. XVade and Munson added four points to our score by taking second and third in the furlong. Our other point was scored by Manager Vermilyea in the hundred, making a total of 18 points, second to Clinton, whose am- phibians had amassed 27 points.
