...morning and soon returned to take examinations. Gregg replaced Smith at bow in Brownell's boat. In the afternoon the four-oar went out in their new shell which proved very satisfactory. Later the Freshmen rowed in their new Davy shell and were coached from the launch by Blake and H. Bancroft. They then started at the point with the University crew and raced over the first half of the four mile course, winning by one quarter of a length in slow time, due to the head wind and rough water. In the last two miles the University crew gave...
...crew then rowed two long stretches and put back into the float, Shuebruk having to take an examination. Later the four-oar was coached by Mr. Higginson, Gregg and Derby alternating at two. Mr. E.

...Freshman crew took a short row up-stream yesterday afternoon, coached by R. F. Blake '99 and H. Bancroft '97, and showed some improvement over the work of last week. Although some of the men still have a tendency to wash out at the finish, the leg drive is stronger and the whole crew seems to have more life. The stroke rowed, however, is very slow, and when it is quickened the work becomes ragged, and the boat rolls. The crew will probably take a harder row today in the new shell built by Davy for use in the race...
