...first of the inter-dormitory bumping races will be rowed this afternoon over the same course as last year. The race will start at the long stretch above the Boylston street bridge beyond the second bend, and, instead of finishing at this bend as was originally planned, the race will continue to the Newell boathouse and end between it and the range flags placed on the opposite bank. The crews will row in two divisions, starting at 3.30 and 4 o'clock respectively, and will take their positions in the following order...
...must report at the boathouses, dressed to row promptly at 2.45 o'clock. The first division will be started promptly at 3.30, and any crew not at its buoy by that time will be considered out of the race. There will be two days of bumping races, after which, the four best crews will be picked for a one and one-half mile straight-away race...

The power in the boat is being used to better advantage, but the crew is still weak in getting away strongly and quickly...

So far Randolph and Glaverly from the Weld boathouse and Mt. Auburn street from the Newell have shown the best form...
...ones which went out from the Newell boathouse and of these Thayer showed the best form. The material at the Newell boathouse yesterday seemed to be far inferior to that of former years. First and second crews from Randolph-Ridgely-Russell, four scrub crews, and one crew from Claverly rowed from the Weld boathouse. Claverly was easily better than the others in from and promises to be up to the high standard which Claverly crews have always maintained since dormitory rowing was started. Hereafter Randolph-Ridgely-Russell will row from the Weld boathouse, while Westmorly and Mr. Auburn street have...
