...Captain John Rogers will also render valuable assistance. There is much valuable material this year in the freshman class, and in the recent rushes they showed that there was plenty of grit and muscle. The members do not propose to take a "back seat" if they can help it. Many of them already give promise of being exceptionally good oarsmen, and they are willing to work.
