...first crews were put on the water at once while the others worked on the machines. As soon as an idea about the relative work of the inexperienced men could be gained, all the lower crews were graded. This year's system contained an innovation in that all men were started on fixed seats and kept there until they showed the necessary proficiency to use the slides...
Chandler prepared at St. Mark's School, and entered the University with distinction in the fall of 1917. During less than three years at the College, he received credit for 16 2-3 courses, without receiving a grade lower than B. He is credited with 11 1-2 A's and only 2 1-6 B's. In the remaining three courses, he was excused from a final examination by the instructor, but his previous work was of an A average. He is thus entitled to a total of 14 1-2 A's. Last spring Chandler received his degree...

The substitutes found little trouble in the light Rindge line-ups, and ploughed through for scores almost at will, especially against the schoolboy regulars. H. S. Grew was back in uniform and went through a light workout. Signals constituted the bulk of work given...
...particular season, several factors are considered. Every team that is organized in a sport is included in the competition and the result is not decided on the outcome of the contest between the first teams from each dormitory alone, but also on the outcome of the contests between the lower teams. In all the sports in which there is a team that plays against other colleges, the representation of each dormitory on this team is also counted because such men would not be represented in the decision otherwise as they are not permitted to play for their dormitories...
