Charles River Perilous When Single Scullers Jam Water

All the thrills of the Indianapolis Speedway are to be had on the Charles River now that the scullers are out in force, according to authoritative reports.

Yesterday a single ran into a two-man shall and the two boats narrowly escaped demolishing each other when the bow of the double ran into the outriggers of the single and there hung stranded.

Reports from Brown and Nichols' crow department say that the coxswains of the pre-school eights have begun to get gray hair because of their narrow escapes from disaster.

The coxswains of the Yardling and Varsity crows have likewise found great causes for insomnia among the waterbugs, but the Crimson men have a little bit quicker reaction, and a great deal better appreciation of the purpose of the metal object on the stern of each shell, the rudder.
