The second crew has the same general faults as has the first, but they are rather more pronounced. There never was, however, a second crew yet but put men on the regular eight before the year was out. This is remarked to show the second freshman eight their importance, and to show them the value of the hardest kind of work. The men are as follows: Stroke, G. Winthrop, 159 lbs.; 7, F. Tudor, 145 lbs.; 6, P. M. Rhinelander, 151 lbs.; 5, Q. A. Shaw, 149 lbs.; 4, M. Williams, 155 lbs.; 3 Van Rensalaer, 151 lbs.; 2, F. R. Bangs, 161 lbs.; bow, Parker, 146 lbs. The average weight of all the candidates is 154 pounds-a slight loss compared with former years. Their height is a trifle over the average and their age just about the average.
W. J. Farquhar, weight 106 pounds, is the candidate for coxswain.
