John Daniel Hertz of Chicago, who stirred up a new demand for motor cars by permitting people who rented his machines by the mile or hour to drive the machines themselves (Driv-ur-Self [TIME, June 21, 1926]) last week extended the idea to motor trucks. The Yellow Truck & Coach Mfg. Co., General Motors subsidiary which he heads, now rents one-ton trucks to people who need a light truck either occasionally or for some emergency. In Chicago the Driv-ur-Self truck rates are 22c to 25c a mile...
...known power of the first Harvard crew to represent the regime of Head Coach E.J. Brown '96 will undoubtedly lead Coach Leader and Stroke Laughlin of Yale to plan a race very different from the 1925 campaign. Two years ago Yale allowed Harvard to gain an open-water lead, the Elis conserving their strength until the last two miles, when they pulled ahead to win. If Yale gets behind tomorrow, they will find it difficult to catch up. Stroke John Watts '28, once his crew gets the lead, keeps his eye on the rival boat, matches every sprint, and strives...
...Pause then to consider that the lean years have expired and the days of plenty are about to set in.

A second and certainly more considerable reason is Coach Brown, who after a successful preliminary season in his first year as moulder of the varsity rowing destinies, reaches the objective and critical test of the season tomorrow. The third reason, and rather more important than psychology and coach, is the crew of eight oarsmen and a coxswain who will...
...Combination eight was also out, but Coach C. S. Heard '25 has made a radical shift in the personnel of his boat and spent the morning coaching his charges. E. B. Hanley '27, formerly rowing in the number 7 seat in the 150-pound crew has been moved up to stroke the Combination eight, taking the place of B. J. Harrison '29 who has been moved back to number 6. D. R. Kroell '29 who has been rowing in the number 6 seat dropped out of the boat...
...University eight has its last four mile time trial ahead of it tomorrow before the Yale race. Coach Brown has not decided as yet whether he will have it paced or not. If he decides against pacing the University oarsmen, the Seconds, the Combination and the Freshmen will stage a two mile race. Otherwise they will take turns at testing the mettle of the Crimson hopes...
