4 - Markoe 177

5 - Hight 156

6 - Sears 172

8 - Parker 163

Stroke - Pfeiffer 168

Cox - Whitney.

Of these men Pfeiffer, Parker, Hight and Perry are old oars. Dustan rowed for a time last year, but was unfortunately taken sick before the race. Sears, Markoe and Hebard are new men.

The crew has had very hard luck, inasmuch as four of last year's eight are rowing with the 'Varsity; the loss of stroke being especially felt. A number of new men have been tried, and it is only within the last few days that the regular crew was definitely decided upon. There are a number of individual faults. The following are, perhaps, especially noticeable:

Stroke - Is apt to hang, and shoots away with too much jerk.

7 - Settles back too far at the finish.
