...tell noticeably on the leading crew. The men were no longer able to respond to the frequent calls for a spurt, and both stroke and No. 7 began to show signs of fatigue. The Claverly crew, on the other hand, rowing a slower, steadier stroke, were still comparatively fresh, and their boat was spacing well. From then on, it was merely a question of whether Claverly could wear down Randolph's lead before the finishing line was reached; this was effected by a final burst of speed just before crossing the line, and Claverly won by a few feet.

...George has devoted much of his time to the study of social conditions, especially of children. For five years, beginning with 1890, he spent his summers in Fresh Air Fund work for children, taking from 200 to 300 boys and girls each year to Freeville, New York. In the summer of 1894 he tried certain principles of self-support and self-government for children with so much success that it was decided to carry on the summer work in the future on these principles.

Sheldon '08, despite its hackneyed theme, is marked notably by wit and artistic restraint. "A Sermon for Lent, by F. Schenck '09, is original, thoughtful, and pointed. "Romola," by H. Powel, Jr., '08, shows narrative power in the writer, but needs revision. As has been...
...University crew left the boathouse about 4.30 o'clock and, accompanied by Coach Wray in a single scull, paddled upstream about half a mile. Then they were forced to return to the boathouse for a fresh oar for Fish, because the button on the oar he started with became loose. On their second trip up-stream the men went about a half a mile again in easy stretches before turning. They rowed all eight most of the time and went along in fairly satisfactory style, despite the fact that they were in the 1905 shell, which was not rigged...
