...Beacon Cup Regatta has been provisionally arranged to be rowed at 2 o'clock on Saturday, May 16, over the one and seven-eighths miles course from the Longwood Bridge to the foot of Berkeley street. Immediately after the class races the single scull race for the Carroll perpetual challenge cup will be rowed over the one-mile course from the Longwood Bridge through the Harvard Bridge. The winner will have his name inscribed on the cup, and will hold it for one year. All members of the University are eligible to compete for the cup, and there will...
...University eight rowed downstream about a mile and a half this morning accompanied by Wray in his single scull. A moderate stroke was maintained and the boat went better than it has at any other time this year. In the afternoon, however, the showing was less satisfactory. The crew went downstream again to the Navy Yard and back in long stretches--and one half-mile was rowed with a stroke of 38, which was raised to 40 in the last 100 yards. The boat travelled better with the fast stroke than it did with the slow. Nevertheless, the work...
...course under 22 minutes is a good combination. The men pulled hard and in unison, got a strong leg drive, and forced the shell to run well between strokes. The afternoon work of the crew showed improvement over that of the morning. Accompanied by Coach Wray in his single scull, the eight went downstream to the Navy Yard and back in easy stretches...
...work of the eights was rather light. In the morning the crews went about three miles, accompanied by Coach Wray in a single scull. In the afternoon, the work showed a decided improvement. The men took hold of the water with a vigor which has not before been seen, and sent their shell along at a good rate, even at the low stroke of 28 and 30. The Freshman crew also went well. Buxton is back again at 4, as his threatened attack of mumps did not develop. Wyman was out again in a pair-oar, and in a scrub...
...University crew had its last hard work before the Columbia race, yesterday afternoon. Accompanied by Coach Wray in his single scull, the eight went upstream for a mile and three-quarters in short stretches before turning. Most of the time on the way upstream the men paddled along at an easy gait, but in a couple of stretches the stroke was raised and lowered to accustom the men to short sprints. Soon after starting Burchard injured one of his thumbs, but after it had been bound, he was able to proceed. Returning downstream the second crew was overtaken and four...
