...lacks that very power which the eight seems to have. The men have gotten fairly well together, but do not seem to be able to send their shell through the water fast enough. The Yale four-oar, on the other hand, works smoothly and forces the boat to run along considerably between strokes.

Mr. Wells's clear view of the possibilities of his position, along with his enthusiasm and disinterested loyalty, augurs well for the success of the undertaking.
