The University crews took a short brisk row on Saturday, and in the few brushes between them neither crew gained materially, although the first sometimes rowed a higher stroke than the second. This poor showing on the part of the first is doubtlessly due to the frequent changes which have recently taken place in that boat. On Saturday Francis, who is now quite well again, was put at five in place of McGrew, who was moved to three. Bullard, who rowed at three on Friday and who has been rowing on the starboard side all this season, was changed over to port, the side on which he rowed last year, replacing Bancroft at two. The order of the second crew remained unchanged, except that Hartwell, who is now in condition again, took his regular place at bow. Covel, who is suffering from a severe cold in the throat, has not yet returned to work.
The orders of the crews are as follows:
First crew--Stroke, Foster; 7, Ayer; 6, Shuebruk; 5, Francis; 4, Swift; 3, McGrew; 2, Bullard; bow, James; cox., Ivy.
Second crew -- Stroke, Brownell; 7, Colby; 6, Smith; 5, Gregg; 4, Derby; 3, Lloyd; 2, Phillips; bow, Hartwell; cox., Otis.
