Since the arrival of the squad at Ithaca on Thursday the University crew has been rowing twice a day, for the most part taking very light work. The crew has been together now for over three months, and although the weather conditions have been unusually poor this spring, the crew has developed into an exceptionally powerful and fast eight. Since the Columbia race on April 17, the order has been unchanged except for the absence of R. Cutler for one day and the temporary illness of Waid during the last few days. The men are much better together than they...
This year the Cornell crews have been very seriously handicapped by poor weather. Although they had their first work on the inlet on February 22, the crews were only able to get out about twice a week during the whole month of March. In the course of practice during this month Coach Courtney found that he did not have enough good men to make up two satisfactory university crews, and on March 15 he took Kelley and Weed out of the University boat and placed them in the junior university crew at No. 3 and stroke respectively. This junior crew...
...second heat, with deSelding of Harvard always within a few yards. After the turn the pair drew away from all the other runners except Conger of Princeton, who at one time threatened to displace deSelding from second. Both Merrihew and Kelly of Harvard qualified in the third heat, although the latter barely held his place by tying with Palmer of Haverford for third. Merrihew ran under difficulties all the way. He was forced to run wide at the turn on account of his position at the extreme right, and in the final stretch he was boxed and several times...
...between 21 feet 9 inches and 21 feet 6 1-2 inches. Mayhew of Brown made the best jump, with Nixon of Cornell an inch behind. Babcock of Columbia was a quarter of an inch behind Nixon, and Cook of Cornell a quarter of an inch behind Babcock. Kilpatrick, although he finished fifth yesterday, is still a prominent candidate for first or second place. Cook has a lame ankle and may not be able to improve his mark to any great extent...
Harvard has a possible chance for first place in the shot-put with Little, although Krueger of Swarthmore, the present record holder, is the logical man for the position. Horner of Michigan is a very dangerous competitor and is expected by his team to win the event. Coy and Kilpatrick of Yale and Talbott of Cornell are closely matched for fourth...
