...boating authority, arrived to-day, and will remain with the 'varsity crew until the New London races are over. In the correspondence that preceded his arrival in this country, Chainey, the English coach, was made to thoroughly understand that he was not employed to give instructions in the British style of rowing. His service would be rather to consolidate this with the American system, taking from each the good that was in them and producing something better than either. He was, moreover, to rig the boat and adapt it to the stroke determined upon, and in other ways make himself...
