Harvard Crew Quarters, Red Top, Conn., June 17, 1909.--Today's work for all the crews was the hardest since the arrival of the squads.

All the crews, except the Freshman four which went up into Moulthrop Inlet, rowed over to the west shore opposite the Freshman quarters at Red Top and paddled up and down over the last half-mile of the course.

The crew showed much improvement over yesterday's work and appears to be slowly emerging from last week's decided slump. The men were using their shoulders to better advantage at the finish, with the result that the boat...
