Owing to the fact that the Freshman crew broke an oar in the race last Saturday, the winning Sophomore crew has challenged them to another race. This will be rowed downstream tomorrow afternoon at 5 o'clock over the one mile and 550 yard course, and will determine which is the better crew to row at the American Henley next Saturday...
Arrangements have been completed by the University crew management for the race against Cornell. The date set is Saturday, May 30, at 2 o'clock and the race will be rowed over the regular course on the Charles River, probably downstream...
HARVARD CREW QUARTERS, RED Tor OT., June 20, 1907.--The chief feature of the work at Red Top today was a time trial for the Freshman eight this morning. The crew started out after the rest of the Harvard crews had left the river, and went downstream as far as the Navy Yard in the launch. On account of the rough water the crew climbed into their shell just below the Navy Yard and rowed upstream over the last two miles of the University course. Bacon kept his stroke about 30 to 32 until the last half-mile, when...
...University eight rowed downstream about a mile and a half this morning accompanied by Wray in his single scull. A moderate stroke was maintained and the boat went better than it has at any other time this year. In the afternoon, however, the showing was less satisfactory.

In the afternoon all the crews went out later than usual. The university and freshman eights rowed upstream a short distance and turned, proceeding downstream about a mile and a half in fairly long stretches. Both fours had light work...
