...first outdoor practice of the season will be held at Annapolis and Barnaby may re-arrange the rank list at that time. Backe, the number one man, who ranked twelfth in the National Junior seedings before the war, is the only player who is assured of his starting berth...
Four years as an "almost good enough" oarsman at the University of Washington under Rusty Callow, now at Penn, were good enough training for Bolles to rate a Freshman coaching berth at his Alma Mater.
