...Buzz Hovey, another man who managed to keep his position in the second boat this year. However, there is still a wrinkle in his form that needs ironing out. Although a hard worker, Hovey is apt to sky on the recovery and knife in at the catch a little. At three is one of the products of Harvey Love's own teaching, El Moffat, who halls from Bombay, India and had never done any rowing until his Freshman year, last year. Then with hard and conscientious work he took a seat in the Freshman shell and this year stepped into...

The result was that he lost a lot of power and had a tough time getting back into form. However, right now he has about the smoothest form on the second sight and is one of the strongest men in the boat...

A minimum, decent, family apartment in Cambridge costs at least eighty dollars a month. Then, second, because of the poor Cambridge school system, teachers are forced to pay tuition for their children at private schools. This costs anywhere from one hundred and fifty to five hundred dollars per year, depending on the age of the children.
