...beginning of the season, Kennard is rowing at 5 again and Maloon at 3, where he was rowing earlier in the year. Galatti has been taking Wise's place at coxswain for the last few days. The crews have usually rowed down-stream into the basin, but yesterday went upstream to the Brighton bridge in short stretches. If the weather is fine this afternoon the crews will row at 2.30 o'clock and will have a race. The crew as a whole is weak at the finish, washes out and is slow at getting the hands away. Ellis at stroke...
...improvement recently than any other man on the squad. He has overcome his tendency to start his body before his oar on the recovery, and he follows the rythm of the stroke much better than he did a week ago. Whitney coxswained yesterday instead of Blagden. In a row upstream as far as the Birghton bridge an unusually slow stroke was kept and Coach Wray paid special attention to lengthening the pull through the water. The men's catch was regular throughout, the boat spaced well and rode on a very even keel. The new shell, which is being built...

The boat was steady, but did not space as well as previously between strokes. The men caught the water with vigor and handled their blades in good form. In the second boat the men did not follow the stroke as well as usual, but were strong on the finish. The four-oar crew rowed very smoothly...
...November 8, 9 and 10. A plan of holding bumping races, similar to those rowed by Oxford and Cambridge, was discussed, but no definite decision was reached. The exact nature of the races will probably be announced on Monday. If bumping races are decided upon, they will be rowed upstream, above the University boathouse, a distance of one and half miles. If it is decided to row regular straight-away races, they will be held on the basin, from the Longwood Bridge to the Union Boat Club, a distance of one and seven-eights miles. First and second prizes will...
...June 22, 1905.--The University crew rowed upstream over the four-mile course this morning. The time, 22 minutes and 16 seconds, was fairly good considering the unfavorable weather conditions. The four-oar crew picked up and passed the University crew in the last half mile...
