...ends of the line Bomeisler and Gallauer will undoubtedly be found in the big games. The latter was placed on the All-American team last year by Walter Camp. The remaining line positions are somewhat in doubt, except that of centre, which Ketcham, generally considered the best centre in the East last year is practically sure of holding. Cooney, a former substitute in that position has been shifted to guard and seems likely material to fill one of the vacancies left by Francis and McDevitt. Green, of last year's freshmen, Randall and Arnold are other men whose work...
Toward the afternoon the wind shifted to westward and moderated somewhat, so that the men were able to find a half-mile or so or smooth water on the opposite side of the river.

At present, however, the crew does not seem quite up to the standard...

As a result, the development of the crew has been not only retarded but set back somewhat. The eight, however, is probably up to the usual standard...
