...Saturday the freshman crew did their usual work on the river. The men were coached by Rust '98, while Clarke '99, acted as coxswain. All the candidates for coxswain have been dropped except Clarke, and he will probably keep that position unless Plumb '99, leaves the 'varsity. Marvin who has been rowing at seven in the freshman boat, has been with the 'varsity since last Wednesday, and his place has been taken by McDuffie...
...Saturday afternoon the crew only rowed down to the Harvard bridge and then turned back and went some distance up stream. While rowing up the river the shell struck a rock.

Following is the order in which the men rowed on Saturday: Stroke, Goodrich; 7, Bullard; 6, Sprague; 5, Moulton; 4, Stillman; 3, Perkins...

Owing to the roughness of the water on the river last Saturday the candidates for the Weld crew rowed in the tank. From the fifty-six candidates two eights have been made up. The rest of the men will work in pair-oars and if, as the rowing is continued, any of these show enough promise of development they will be put on the regular squad...
