...that was lacking before and both coach Wray and Captain Reynolds are satisfied that they will do good work in the race in the Basin on next Tuesday. During the first part of the week the crews took long, easy paddles, Coach Wray paying particular attention to the quick pull through and slow recovery which makes the boat run between strokes. Yesterday and the day before the crews tried racing starts and fast stretches at 32 to 36 strokes a minute in preparation for the race...
