...fall rowing of the University candidates has been confined thus far to the fours. There are four regular crews rowing, and besides these, about ten spare men who do daily work in pairs and singles. Several changes have been made during the past week in the order of the crew. J. H. Perkins and C. C. Bull have joined the football squad, and McDuffie has stopped rowing temporarily. H. Adams '98, has been appointed captain of Perkins's crew and Clarke Thomson '99, of Bull's. The withdrawal of these men has necessitated changes. Thomson has taken Bull's place...

The team started the season with very encouraging prospects, as almost all of last year's eleven were available for positions; but the progress so far has not been as rapid as was expected. The team as a whole is not aggressive enough; the men do not make the most of their opportunities. On the defence there is a distinct weakness in breaking through and on the offense the interference is slow in starting and runs...
