...initial practice of the two first crews in the Lynn harbor which was to have been held yesterday afternoon was postponed until today because it was found impossible to arrange facilities for launching the shells. The float used by the West Lynn Boat Club was washed away shortly after being put in place, and without it no boats could be put on the water. The two shells which were sent down yesterday have arrived and the Pup 1, which will be used by Coach Haines, has been launched on the harbor. Early this afternoon the two first eights will leave...

Beginning with March 15, Dr. Denny will be at the boathouse every Thursday afternoon in order to keep the oarsmen...
...value and activity of the submarine in modern naval warfare. Beginning with the efforts of a number of individuals who built a fast type of small cruiser for the destruction of submarines, the movement has been received most favorably and finally the Government has authorized the organizing of patrol boat squadrons along the Atlantic coast.

Since each boat has a crew of only...
