Last summer, there were never more than 300 men taking their meals at Memorial and as a result the fixed charges were extremely high. Whereas under the present arrangement an initial charge is made of something between thirteen and fourteen cents, figured on the report of March 1, the charges last summer were nineteen cents a meal before any food was served. Apparently it is impossible to cut down the help and the running expenses in proportion as the numbers decrease since a certain number of assistants are required regardless of the number of persons served...

...appears to be fully as fast as last year's eight with the added advantage of a little more weight. Like all of Kennedy's crews, their blade work is extremely smooth and clean and they seem to have good speed. Both eights are stroked by men who have never rowed in a University shell before, but they both have the advantage of veteran oarsmen just behind them at number seven. There are more men of experience in the University boat than in Yale's, but the advantage is extremely small, as Yale's new men have had considerable experience...
