Rowing at the Weld and Newell boat-houses has now been going on steadily for over two weeks. There has been some improvement but on the whole the crews, both in form and power, are being developed very slowly. The men, in the main, fail to put enough life into their work.
The crews have been coached by Wray and Vail and have rowed recently in the following orders:
First Weld--Stroke, Pleasanton; 7, Lawson; 6, Ober; 5, Gill; 4, Shephard; 3, Johnson; 2, Judd; bow, Corlett; cox., Borden.
Second Weld--Stroke, Hanford; 7, May; 6, Brown; 5, Abbot; 4, Callaway; 3, MacIntyre; 2, Cunningham; bow, Wilcox; cox., Prisely.
Third Weld--Stroke, Field; 7, Joralemon; 6, Burnett; 5, Tuckerman; 4, Taylor; 3, Morgan; 2, Dougherty; bow, Burden; cox., Stone.
Fourth Weld--Stroke, Moses; 7, Harter; 6, Black; 5, Hall; 4, Forbes; 3, Kempner; 2, Hale; bow, Mills; cox., Rockwell.
First Newell--Stroke, Durfee; 7, Olney; 6, Foster; 5, Moller; 4, White; 3, Switzer; 2, James; bow, Flint; cox., Greene.
Second Newell--Stroke, Chandler; 7, Leaycraft; 6, Otis; 5, Lawson; 4, Colman; 3, Hopkins; 2, Preston; bow, Stockton; cox., Montgomery.
Third Newell--Stroke, Amory; 7, Shephard; 6, Williams; 5, Stevens; 4, Lindsay; 3, Waldo; 2, Oelrichs; bow, Waite; cox., Fargo.
Fourth Newell--Stroke. Whittemore; 7, Barclay; 6, Osterhand; 5, Darling; 4, Belcher; 3, Holmes; 2, Head; bow, Foster; cox., Baldwin.
Most of the practice of the two Freshman squads up to this time has been in the Newell boathouse on the machines with fixed seats. The 3.30 squad has been rowing as follows:
Stroke. Tappan; 7, Potter; 6, Swain; 5, Richards; 4, Wilder; 3, Libby; 2, Simmons; bow, Frost. Stroke, Farley; 7, Durant; 6, Fuller; 5, Means; 4, Clark; 3, Gunther; 2, Dick; bow, Hamilton.
