...sport as a guiding star, to enter as many events as is compatible with economy and the endurance of the oarsmen. The crews will probably not have a formal training table, although supervision of food will be given, and work in military science and rowing on alternate days will take care of the men's condition...
...third production of the 47 Workshop will take place at the Newtowne Theatre, in North Cambridge, on the evenings of Friday and Saturday, March 8 and 9, when a set of four one-act plays written by students in English 47 will be presented.
