Harvard Training Quarters, Red Top, Conn., June 22, 1909.--As the weather continues to be very hot, the crews had light work again this morning. The University eight went down-stream to the mile mark and back in easy stretches. The boat went very well and spaced out beautifully on a perfectly even keel; the finish was hard and the catch quick and there was plenty of life in the boat. All the crews did about the same work as the University eight, the Freshman crew also rowing very well. R. F. Hoopel 11 returned to the quarters early this...
Harvard Training Quarters, Red Top, Conn., June 21, 1909.--As the weather was excessively hot today the crews all had very light work in the morning. The University crew paddled down-stream to the Navy Yard, and back in easy stretches at a slow stroke. The University four followed the eight down-stream and back, and the second four took a light row up-stream towards the Yale quarters. The Freshman four rowed down-stream a little beyond Cows Point and back, and the eight covered the same distance. Later in the afternoon it was much cooler; the crews went...
Yale Crew Quarters, Gales Ferry. Conn., June 21, 1909.--At 11 o'clock this morning the university eight and two four-oared crews rowed up-stream. An outrigger's breaking in one of the fours forced it to return after rowing a mile. The other four continued for another half-mile, but the eight did not turn back until it had rowed two and a half miles. In the afternoon the freshman crew rowed down-stream two miles at a slow stroke, and the university eight was taken down to the railroad-bridge in the launch and rowed back...
Harvard Training Quarters, Red Top, Conn., June 20, 1909.--Late last evening Coach Wray sent the University eight in its new order over the four-mile course on time. The crew covered the distance up-stream, under fair conditions, in 21 minutes, 37 seconds. No attempt at speed was made throughout the course, the object being to get the new order well together, to try Cutler out at stroke, and to see if Withington was fit for the distance. The stroke was kept at 30 except for the third half-mile, when it was raised to 31. At the finish...
Harvard Crew Quarters, Red Top, Conn., June 18, 1909.--Two very important and sudden changes were made in the order of the University crew tonight. R. W. Cutler '11 was put in at Sargent's place at stroke and P. Withington '09 was taken from 2 in the University four and put in at Cutler's place at six. Whether this change is to be permanent or not will be decided by tomorrow's rowing if the water is sufficiently calm...
