...work for the University crew yesterday consisted of an easy paddle downstream. The crews rowed with slightly altered orders. Hooper and Higginson in the second boat changed places, Hooper rowing 7, the position he held on his Freshman crew. Wiggins took bow in the second boat in place of Shillito, who filled the bow position in the third crew...

...their rowing is not up to the standard. In the University crew the faults noticeable the first day on the river have not disappeared. The men still rush the slides, jerk at the catch and show a general unsteadiness. The individual work of the men in the first boat has been fairly good, but the crew rows as individuals and not as one man. The stern four are responsible for the tendency to rush the slides...

Withington's absence from rowing this fall. Bacon may find trouble at first on the starboard side of the boat, but he is naturally a very adaptable oarsman and should soon fit in, besides being heavy and strong enough for the position...

Three members of the Freshman crew and Forster of the four-oar were in the make-up of the second University crew. Strong, although he is new to the starboard side of the boat, as he rowed 6 in his Freshman eight, showed-up well at 5, and he seems to have a good chance for Withington's place in the University crew. This crew seemed to be fairly well together in spite of the fact that the boat was not on a very even keel and the oars did not come out cleanly at the finish...
