Crew Notes.

During the recess the work of the 'varsity crew was increased and the men rowed twice a day instead of once. The mornings were given up to coaching in the pair oars and in the afternoons the men went out in the barge. The order in which the men rowed was changed very little. On Tuesday, Fennessy was tried at stroke. The usual order, however, was as follows:

Glidden Stroke

Fearing 7

Vail 6

Stearns 5

Eddy 4

Davis 3

Johnson 2

Newell Bow

On Tuesday the new launch, John Harvard, was used for the first time. The machinery is the same that was in the old launch, the hull only being new. She is painted white, is a little longer than the old one and is warranted to be faster.

Yesterday afternoon there were some changes made in the order of the men as follows:

Glidden '94 (Fennessy '96) Stroke

Fearing '93 7

Vail '93 (Cummings '93) (Acton M. S.) 6

Blake '94 5

Johnson '93 4

Davis '94 3

H. Richardson '95 3

Newell '94 Bow

The Freshmen, too, rowed twice a day during the recess, with the exception of Friday and Saturday, but both times in the barge. They sat as follows:

Fennessy Stroke

Shepherd 7

Rice 6

Duffield 5

Shea 4

Stevenson 3

Russell 2

Townsend Bow

On Monday Townsend and Russell, who were rowing bow and 2, were severely hurt by running into the railroad bridge. They will probably row again, however, on Friday. With these two men unable to row, Stevenson sick, and Fennessy being tried with the 'varsity, the work of the freshmen was seriously interfered with yesterday. The few men who were left to row, went out in pair oars.

On Tuesday at the boat house the captains of the class crews drew for positions in the class races which take place on May 8th. In the preliminary drawing to determine the order in which the captains should draw, Ninety five got the first, Ninety-six, second, Ninety-four, third and Ninety-three, last. In the drawing for positions the order was reversed, and Ninety-three drew the inside course nearest the wall, Ninety four next, Ninety six next, and Ninety-five on the outside.
