Five out of the eight men in the boat rowed against Cornell last year, all of them have had considerable invaluable racing experience, and the crew averages nearly five pounds more to the man than the Cornell eight. It has repeatedly beaten the strong second University crew by many lengths, a crew which Cornell was only able to beat by a scant length even when it was rowing poorly and with one of its best men out of the boat...

Kilpatrick of Yale will undoubtedly do better than he did two week sago and is a sure second and a possible first. Nixon of Cornell is the most likely man for third, while Harvard with Little and Long has a chance for a point...
