The work of the Yale crew so far this season has differed slightly from that of previous years. The men who rowed on the crew of last year have, up to this time, been required to do no tank work. Formerly the old men have gone into the tank to do the same work as those who were inexperienced, that is, to start from the beginning and to learn the stroke. This of course necessitates a disregard of many of the finer points of the stroke, that eventually have to be re-learned. The last year's men are, however, required to do the same amount of running and exercising as those of less experience.
The chief difficulty in the crew this year is likely to be at stroke, for which position there seems to be no very promising candidate.
