HARVARD CREW QUARTERS, RED TOP, CT., June 17, 1907.--The work for the crews here today was moderately light. In the morning the University crew went downstream for a mile, and then returned up the river to Red Top, after which it again went downstream for half a mile before leaving the water. The Freshman crew covered a mile and a half in easy stretches. Buxton, who has rowed regularly at 4, is threatened with the mumps, and has been quarantined. Vogel took his place and Loring was put in at 2 in the four-oared in Vogel's position...
HARVARD CREW QUARTERS, RED TOR, CT., June 16, 1907.-This morning several members of the University and Freshman squads attended church at Gales Ferry, and, in the afternoon, the University squad was given a sail in the house boat owned by Mr. Larz Anderson '88. The work on Saturday was light for all crews except the University four-oar, which covered about 7 miles in the afternoon. The University eight rowed over the four-mile course in the afternoon in 22 minutes and 33 seconds. This is the best time tat the crew has made so far this year...
HARVARD CREW QUARTERS, RED TOP, CT., June 14, 1907.--The University crew had its first time trial over the four-mile course late this afternoon, covering the distance in 22 minutes and 46 seconds.

At about 7.15 o'clock the men went in the launch downstream as far as the New London railroad bridge. The crew got away with a good start and rowed about 32 strokes per minute for the first half-mile...
HARVARD CREW QUARTERS, RED TOP, CT., June 12, 1907.--The main feature of the crew practice here today was the decided shake-up in the University four-oar during the afternoon practice. The boat started about 5.15 o'clock with G. Bacon stroking instead of Lunt. After a mile C. Morgan replaced Amberg at number 3. In a short while Lunt was put in Swaim's place at number 2, and later Burchard replaced Wiggins at bow. The four-oar has not been doing satisfactory work, and Coach Wray has been paying especial attention to it. More changes are likely...
