Ahead of this crew no soft snaps are waiting. Saturday they meet a Tech crew that is anxious to reverse the tables and a Columbia eight that licked Yale by a quarter of a length. Just how much that means is still to be seen, but the race is likely to be close enough to mean that for the second time in as many weeks, the fifties will provide most of the thrills of the Regatta...

Crimsonite Bob Haydock ranks along the top in the high-jump. Having jumped 6'2" during the winter, he will have to have an off day to let Dillingham of Columbia, and James Cuffe of Dartmouth outjump him.
