...undetated Crimson 150-pound varsity crew will try to outrow Yale's favored 'fifties over the Henley course on the Housatonic at Derby, Connecticut tomorrow in the three-crew Goldthwaite Cup regatta. Princeton is the third entry. The junior varsity and freshman eights will also race...
Tech ranked third probably because it has a less impressive rowing tradition than Pennsylvania. As a matter of fact, the Engineers may well outrow the Quakers. Other entries in the varsity race are: Rutgers, Wisconsin, B.U., Navy, Princeton, and Syracuse...
...Whether Harvard will outrow Yale is another matter. Yale has the advantage this year of an accomplished coach, Perry Bolton.

Thompson, a little freshman weighing less than 100 pounds, will take the seat in which...

Consequently, in consenting to row in fours we might give...
