...great problem has presented itself to Coach Guy Nickalls this year, in that the increased weight of the oarsmen has made necessary the adoption of a lengthy stroke, whereas last year a sprinting stroke was used up until the final workout before the race at New London. The first regatta of this year was held with Pennsylvania, and in this Yale's inability to get going so as to finish up with sufficient speed was clearly shown.

The team lined up today in the same order as on Saturday against Princeton, except that Allen took the place of Wiedemann...

The greater part of the men who faced Princeton on Saturday had a short practice in punting, passing, and charging, and wound up their afternoon with a snappy signal drill...
