He mounted a cannon on the hood of his limousine and made sure his chauffeur was prepared to repel, at his command, any enemy attacks. He modeled the paper's new printing plant on a fanciful vision of an impregnable fortress, complete with battlements, sentry boxes, and firing holes offering protected lines of fire...

The dismal conditions caused the cancellation of the Boston University Invitational Regatta, as well as a disappointing ninth-place finish in the Hood Trophy at Tufts. The weekend was not without its successes, however, as women’s captain Megan Watson earner a fifth-place finish in the New England Women’s Singlehanded Championship in New London, Conn., qualifying for the National Championship.
