Yale Crew Quarters, Gales Ferry, Conn., June 21, 1910.--All the crews had light work this morning. The university and freshman eights rowed one mile up-stream and tried several racing starts. On the return to the boathouse the university eight gave the freshmen two lengths start and passed them in three-quarters of a mile. The university fours also tried some racing starts and covered two miles in all. At six o'clock this evening the five crews rowed down to the Navy Yard in short stretches. Coach Kennedy sent the crews back to the boathouse in one stretch...
Yale Crew Quarters, Gales Ferry, Conn., June 20, 1910.--Both the Yale crew squads were given light practice today. All the crews went up-stream for their morning and afternoon work. The university crew rowed less than two miles during the morning and devoted some time to the practice of racing starts. The freshman eight and all three fours merely rowed a mile up stream and back to the boathouse. During the afternoon the work was a little more severe. In a short race between the three fours, the university four finished first, the second four next, and the freshman...
Harvard Crew Quarters, Red Top, New London, Conn., June 19, 1910.--Yesterday morning the University eight had very light work, paddling down-stream to Cow Point, a mile below Red Top, in light stretches. Coach Wray followed in a single and paid special attention to the individual work of the men. It was expected that a time trial would be held in the afternoon, but this was abandoned because Bacon was slightly indisposed. Contrary to all expectations, a further change was made in the order of the University four. Coach Wray had said that the bow positions of the four...
...boat went very well and the trial was, in the whole, a creditable performance. The Freshman four covered two miles in all. In the morning, the University four went out in the following order: stroke, Forster; 3, Hooper; 2, Sargent; bow, Balch; cox., Voorhees. The two fours rowed down-stream for a mile and a half. Coach Wray followed the work of all the crews in a single today for both the morning and afternoon work...
...afternoon's work was the lightest which the two eights have had since their arrival at New London. The two crews rowed easily one mile down-stream and back. The University four went out with Waite at stroke in place of Forster, who stroked the second four. In one or two brushes, the second four was victorious. It seems likely that Hooper, Sargent, and Balch will be permanent now at 3, 2, and bow, respectively, in the University four, with the stroke position lying between Forster and Waite. By Monday one of these two will probably be selected...
