...afternoon's work-out was marked by a two-mile race between the University fours. The second four jumped away on the start, but at the half-mile mark the first was leading by two feet of open water. At the mile mark the University four had increased the lead to one-quarter of a length of open water. The University four won easily by three and one-half lengths in 11 minutes and 54 seconds. The orders were as follows: University four--Stroke, Forster; 3, Balch; 2, Sargent; bow, Loring; cox., Voorhees. Second four--Stroke, Waite; 3, Hooper...
...University crew paddled downstream a short distance beyond the half-way mark this afternoon in one stretch. The return to the boathouse was rowed without a stop. The crew shoved the shell ahead well on its keel and without any perceptible checking between strokes, although slight individual faults were noticeable. Metcalf at 3 did not bury his blade enough in the water, Withington at 4 failed to use his shoulders to the best advantage on the swing, and Waid was ahead of Cutler on the first part of the recovery. Coach Wray warned the men not to pull hard...

At Cottage Farm Bridge the third crew was leading by a quarter of a length, at the three-quarter mile mark the second crew overtook the third, and soon had a lead of three-quarters of a length, which was maintained to the end of the race...

The columns of all the papers are gaping open to any member of the University burdened with a new idea, or anything worth saying; but for some reason, we blush to suggest laziness, extraordinarily...
...start, S. Royce 4S. took the lead, with Orr and Parker a length behind; at the half-mile mark, Lynn, who had rowed a straighter course than the others, had pulled up into the lead, and Orr had dropped back, leaving Parker and Royce struggling for second. A few seconds later, Royce fainted and Parker spurted to catch Lynn. The latter rowed strongly however and kept the lead until fifty yards from the finish, when Parker slowly passed him and won by half a length...
