Whitwell, number 6, is very long, and is apt to lose control in getting to the full reach, thereby failing sometimes to get a good grip of the water.
James, number 5, is erratic in controling his slide and is often slow in getting away on the first part of the recover. He has been inclined to be late on the catch, but is improving in this respect.
McGrew, number 4, rushes out on the recover and fails to get off his stretcher smoothly. His stroke is jerky, and, though at times he succeeds in rowing fairly well with the rest of the crew, he easily falls out of time.
Hartwell, number 3, although light for the position, has good time and a great deal of life. He gets away well on the recover and has fair control, but is sometimes inclined to row light.
Switzer, number 2, clips the first part of the stroke and fails entirely to hold it out at the finish. He is also slow on the recover.
