...University crew had its first real work on the Thames this afternoon when a time trial was held over the four-mile course. After taking the shell down stream to the railroad bridge, the men climbed into their seats from the John Harvard and after one short stretch to limber up, turned and rowed to the line.

The Freshman four-oar rowed only a short distance in the morning but in the afternoon went nearly four miles accompanied by Coach Gill in his single scull...
