...port side at stroke. At the beginning of the fall rowing the slide work and the proportion of the stroke at the catch and finish was mediocre. Gradually, however, the crew has improved on these lines, and the rowing of the eight is now marked by a good, hard leg-drive and a splendid finish. During the past week Coach Wray has been trying to eliminate a slight tendency to hang, instead of turning around quickly, on the catch. The University crew should undoubtedly win out this afternoon...
...Morrison were in the backfield. All of these men are in first-class condition and will probably start in the Dartmouth game. The only man absent from practice was Potter, who is laid up with a muscle bruise. T. H. Frothingham followed the practice in street clothes, as his leg is still weak. H. E. Kersburg '06 and H. Foster '07 watched the work from the sidelines. In order to keep the field in good condition for the Dartmouth game, it is covered with hay every evening. The line-ups: TEAM A. TEAM B. Lewis, l.e. r.e., Felton McKay...
...general improvement has occurred in the team-play, and with the return of the injured regulars, the team will be materially strengthened. Wigglesworth has entirely recovered from his illness and will run the team today. The backfield will be further strengthened by the return of T. Froth- ingham, whose leg is completely healed. Morrison and Corbett will play in the other backfield positions. The line will be the same as in the Brown game, unless P. D. Smith should replace Huntington just before the start of the game...
...Arsenal and back in short stretches, the work of the crew being the best which has been shown during the experimental changes of this week. Although the boat had a tendency to check at the catch on account of the men jabbing their oars into the water with their leg drive applied too suddenly, the body swing was much better and the men were well together. The two fours which will be taken to New London will be definitely picked today...
...crews rowed a low stroke throughout the race, the Juniors averaging from twenty-eight to thirty strokes to the minute and Technology somewhat lower. At the Harvard Bridge Technology was about two lengths ahead, and although displaying less finish than the Junior eight, got in well and showed good leg drive. After they passed the bridge the water became rougher and both crews were compelled to lower the stroke. Here Technology's superior weight told, and although the Juniors were rowing in much better form, the former began to draw away faster. Towards the end of the race both crews...
