...Auto Show" number, he has contributed two articles--both unusually interesting and calling for no small degree of of research. In the first, "Harvard Racing Shells," he traces the development of the shell from 1846, when the first Harvard crew rowed in the clumsy lap-streak barge "Oneida," to the efficient shells of today--those which lower records, on the Thames at New London.
