...simplicity and quiet effectiveness, and this new movement toward a more complete unity of purpose ought to strengthen all the societies greatly.

No man could be better fitted than Dr. Hodges to address such a meeting in a spirit of broad minded tolerance...

Willis usually rowed at stroke, the other men going in at bow, and the Leander man's rowing was in marked contrast to that of any of the others in its great smoothness and ease. Willis's blade work is perfect, and in every way he is a model of Mr. Lehmann's ideas of rowing. Work in the tubs will continue until Saturday, then Monday...
