...University crews spent a disagreeable, rainy morning today in short races in which various boats were tried out.

...runners available promises well for the success of the season. Captain A. R. Bancroft '17, W. P. Whitehouse, 2d, '17 and G. A. King '18 are the most dependable men. W. D. Hutchinson '19, captain of last year's Freshman team, should be well up with the leaders. Other good men include R. H. Davison '17, H. R. Bechtel '17, R. S. Cook '17, C. J. Noprth '17, J. Coggeshall '18, L. K. Moorehead '18, and C. W. W. P. Heffenger '18. From the 1919 team, E. H. Kelton '19, H. E. Small '19, and J. M. Greene '19 should...
