Rutgers crews row with the same shorter reach and layback that Bolles has introduced here, and reports say they space well, have clean blade work and in the Manhattan race they finished with a powerful sprint at 34 strokes to the minute. It will be an interesting race, but although we can't tell too much it doesn't appear that the Scariet boat can have much of a chance against a Crimson crew that starts easily, swings along with smooth powerful 32 and can spring up to 40 at the finish...
...abuilding, in new equipment for the New York Central's 20th Century Limited, the Pennsylvania's Broadway Limited, the North Western, Union Pacific and Southern Pacific streamliners and the Santa Fe's Chief, is a new Pullman creation-the "roomette." Occupying a little over the space of one section (upper & lower berths), it is a miniature compartment with a sliding metal door, a real bed which folds into the wall giving ample room for vertical dressing.

To stay-at-homes with a clear wrong view, the war might seem a campaign, a crusade, a cause; but to the men who did its manual labor it was "a bellyache, a confused strife for boxcar space, a useless march, a grudge at troopers and gunners and wagoneers, a surfeit of hills and towns and faces and sunshine and rain of the Cumberland Valley. It was too many men and too few women, it was homesickness and yet wanderlust, and a cut finger which was slow...
