...game, 6 to 4. Upton '93, played short stop on Andover that year. In 1889, Trafford '93, and Upton '93, caught respectively for Exeter and Andover, and Soule '93, played short stop for Exeter. Exeter won, 3 to 2. It was in this game that Trafford got through several water buckets, a couple of benches and the scorers' stand in time to make a wonderful foul catch...
Yesterday afternoon the practice race which had been arranged with the Bowdoin crew was rowed over the two mile course used in the class races. The day was wet and cold and a stiff easterly breeze caused very bad water on the exposed stretches. At 4.40 p. m. the two crews succeeded in getting into satisfactory positions and Mr. Richards the referee gave the word to start. Both crews caught the water almost at the same moment, and Bowdoin started off with 40 strokes to the minute, Harvard rowing 36. The difference between the two styles of rowing was very...
...Friday the crew did not get out till very late in the afternoon. They went down into the Basin; and in spite of the rough water tried the hard, four mile pull back.

...full reach, start his slide too soon on the stroke and not handle his oar clearly. 6 lifts the boat in the stroke, rows short and feathers very awkwardly. He rows smoothly and improves in some of his work. 5 is apt to be very unsteady. He feathers under water, pulls his arms in too hard and swings across the boat. He has improved. 4 is steadily improving, but still has a tendency to be slow with his body at the full reach and let his slide go too fast in the stroke. 3 does not sit in the middle...
...freshman crew is a good deal changed around since the race. The last two days the order in the boat has been as follows: Stroke, Bond; 7, Waters; 6, Shea; 5, Glidden; 4, Fay; 3, Blake; 2, Johnson; bow, Thompson. Although the crew made a good showing in the class race, it must realize that there is quite a different task in store for it if it intends to win from Yale and Columbia at New London. The men are not earnest enough. They do not put every effort into the work nor get half the good of their coaching...
