...Flower '19, who was captain of his freshman eleven and track team, will stant at fullback; R. H. Bond '19, halfback, also playd on his freshman eleven, and C. K. Clark '19 was the 1919 guard. Flower shows great speed and ability to shift and reverse the line when he carries the ball. Of the backs he is the one whose open field running and plunges through the line most nearly approach the brilliant work of Mahan, the 1915 captain...
...looked over carefully and as a result a regular order for the first boat was not made for two or three days. That a good selection was decided on by the coaches in their first definite choice is illustrated by the fact that it was not found necessary to shift bow, five, six or seven until after the spring vacation.

In one of the closest races seen in this country, as Professor Noyes put it: "A most extraordinary race," they lost by 6 inches.

Cabot took bow, forcing Potter into seven in the second boat. Captain Morgan moved up one more peg into his last year's and more suitable seat, thus forcing White down to the second also. Morgan...
...Haven, Conn., April 5.--Coach Vivian Nickalls made a shake-up in the University boats here today. MacNaughton was advanced from the second to 7 in the first crew, while Captain Low, who had been rowing 7, was shifted to 3.

He further declared that he would likely make some changes in the personnel of the Freshman crews within the next...
