...Whitney '11, and McG. A. King '10, were lost by graduation. The veterans in the boat and material from the Freshman and University four-oared crews gave good prospects of turning out a fast eight. After the first few days of practice a very important change was made. Goodale went in at stroke, Cutler changing over to the starboard side of the boat at 7. In three previous years Cutler had stroked a victorious crew at New London so the shift was regarded as a radical one. He was somewhat too large and heavy for the ideal stroke...
...squad went to Red Top on Monday, June 12. The order to the University eight remained the same until last Saturday when from 4 to stroke, changing places with Goodale. This change was made to improve the rhythm and finish and seems fully justified. On Tuesday the eight rowed a trial over the four-mile course in 20 minutes and 26 seconds...
...Freshman eight is developing rapidly. Early in the spring the prospects seemed good but when Chanler, who was at stroke went on probation at the hour examinations, the crew seemed to go to pieces. Four other strokes were tried out but nothing seemed to make the necessary improvement and the crew was badly beaten by Cornell 1914. Since going to Red Top, however, tremendous improvement has been shown and there seems to be a good chance for victory against the powerful Yale freshmen...
Harvard Training Quarters Red Top, Conn. June 20, 1911.--The University crew was given a second time trial this afternoon and went over the course in 20 minutes, 26 seconds, the fastest time made in the last four years. Starting opposite Red Top with the Freshman crew, at a stroke of 36 to the minute, the latter were quickly dropped a length behind. At the half-mile flag the stroke had been lowered to 32 and at the mile to 30, which was maintained until the three-mile mark was reached. The Freshman eight finished three lengths in the rear...
...morning the University eight went down to the Navy Yard and returning took three quarter-miles in stretches at a high stroke. The fours were given short rows both morning and afternoon. The University and Freshman crews paid their annual visit to the Yale quarters going up river in the John Harvard. After their return they heard the detailed returns of the Harvard-Yale game at New Haven...
