Time after time we have censured the carelessness of some students with regard to their conduct in the library. Loud talk and noisy shuffling has become with some men a positive habit. Within the last two days, certain students have been the cause of great annoyance to the readers by their careless method of work.

...does not row his shoulders back, thus making his finish weak. He swings out from his oar at the finish. No. 5 gets a weak finish and does not sit up well. He lets his outside shoulder swing forward on the full reach, and is apt to be careless in his rowing. He swings out. No. 4 keeps his arms bent even on the full reach. He does not get his shoulders on at all at the beginning of the stroke, letting his slide get ahead of his shoulders. He swings out. No. 3 starts forward too slowly and gets...
