From all appearances, the class races this year will be very evenly contested. The freshmen are rowing better than is usual for this time of the year. It is impossible to say which of the other three crews has the best chance of winning. The senior crew is made up as follows:-

Position. Name. Weight.

Stroke, Hale, 147 1bs.

7, Butler. 160 1bs.

6, Bradlee, 165 1bs.

5, Appleton, 165 1bs.

4, Williams, 158 1bs.

3, Baldwin, 152 1bs.

2, Porter, 156 1bs.

Bow, Tooker, 152 1bs.

Coxswain, Brown, 96 1bs.

Baldwin and Tooker are new men. All other members of the crew are old ones. They are rowing about the same stroke as last year. They catch the water easily and get a very strong finish. Their body work is wretched. They do not bring their legs down together. The blade work is the best on the river. The time is very good. During the last few days, under the careful coaching of Mr. James Storrow, the crew has made wonderful improvement.

The junior crew:-

Position. Name. Weight.

Stroke, Perkins, 152 1bs.
