...crews went out fon light work-outs. The water was smooth but the heat was intense. This afternoon the boats were not put in the water until about 7.30. The University and second crews went down to the bridge in launches and raced up-stream. At the two-mile mark the Freshmen relieved the second and raced the last two miles. Since it was pitch dark no official time was taken. The second rowed a higher stroke than the first and after a final spurt was two lengths ahead at the two-mile mark.

Late in the afternoon, Mr. Herrick took the second crew down to the Navy Yard. On the return trip, a mile was rowed at a high stroke to accustom...
...races were run off in the afternoon. At 6 o'clock the northeast breeze braced around into the south west, and, with the tide at the flood the first and second University boats lined up on the two-mile mark. The race was close and exciting throughout. At one time the first was nearly a length ahead, but the second cut the lead to a question of feet at the finish just off the float.
