...other hand, appeared to be a little tired. Noyes at 6 was lunging with his blade at the catch, and Morse, 3, and Weeks, bow, were also out of time on the recovery. Gradually the University shell forged ahead. Filley raised his stroke and every man in the boat kept with him, even at 36 in the last few lengths. The whole Harvard crew finished strong, crossing the line a winner by almost two lengths of open water. The time was 23 minutes and 2 seconds. In the Yale boat, Noyes, 6, was forced by exhaustion to stop rowing before...
...University four-oared race was won by Yale by at least 10 boat lengths. For the first quarter mile the shells kept on even terms, but after that Yale steadily pulled away. There was no perceptible trouble in the University crew. The men kept well together and held a steady stroke. The Yale crew did not row in any the smoother form, but was physically more powerful. Yale's time was 11 minutes, 46 3-5 seconds...

He has, however, the requisite speed and weight. G. G. Ball '08 is light and was kept out of the game by a bad shoulder most of last season. J. W.

The freshmen started a length ahead but were a length behind at the finish. The work was very smooth, although no time was given...
...June 15, 1906--The Yale university and freshman eights left the Yale quarters at 5 o'clock this afternoon and rowed down stream 1 and 1-2 miles. Weeks took Rockwell's place at bow in the university eight, Rockwell going to bow in the four-oar. Both crews kept a 30 to the minute stroke and there was no attempt at a race. In a half-mile brush between the university and freshman four-oars, the former won by a length...
