The substitutes are Huddleston, 184 lbs., and Rogers, 177 lbs. The most noticeable fault of the crew is a tendency to rush down and hurry the stroke. Yesterday they rowed thirty-eight strokes a minute in a heavy barge. No. 1 jams his hands down on the shoot, No. 2 takes too much water on the beginning; No. 3 has too violent a shoot; No. 4 don't pull his oar through to the finish; No. 5 settles; No. 6 has an imperfect finish; No. 7 swings back too far; stroke dips too deep at the beginning.

The sophomore class has turned out a number of good oarsmen. Five of their freshman crew are now on the university crew, but sufficient good material remains in the class to make a very good eight. The men have shown considerable improvement, and are now rowing together in good time. The oars, however, are not carried through the full length of the stroke, and several men swing back too far.

The crew rows as follows:
