...rowed on interscholastic crews. The Sophomore crew is rowing from the Weld Club with the same makeup it had last spring. D. Evans '01 has resigned from the captaincy of the Weld junior crew, and will not row again this fall, and C. W. Locke '01 has taken his place as captain and stroke...
...eleven is, for this time of year, reasonably strong. In yesterday's practice of fifteen minutes the second eleven was given the ball half the time to test the first eleven. With the possible exception of right end, which was weakened by the absence of Hallowell, there was no place in the line where the second made consistent gains. The tackles were much improved. J. Lawrence, although against weaker opponents than on Saturday, was much steadier than usual, and proved he had not lost his aggressiveness by blocking one of the second eleven's kicks. But Swain played desultorily...

He also made consistent gains on line plunges...

Leary, who was tackle last year, is being tried in the position, but is also too light and will probably return to his old place. Stillman, who will undoubtedly fill the other tackle, played in both the Harvard and Princeton games last year...
