Orders of Trial Eights Changed

The two trial eights of the University crew squad were sent upstream yesterday to the Brighton bridge in short stretches and back to the boathouse at a fast pace. Owing to the numerous changes in the orders the work was ragged and the boats did not maintain an even keel. Morgan's crew, rowing a 27 stroke, spaced poorly, and the men failed to get all the power out of the stroke, the starboard side particularly being uneven. Ball's crew caught the water well together, but were inclined to rush their slides. Amberg's work at 7 was very creditable.

Tappan, who rowed 3 in the University crew last year against Yale and Cambridge, reported for the first time this fall. Neither Fish, number 2 in last year's boat, nor Faulkner, who went to England with the crew as substitute, will row any more this fall.

The orders yesterday were as follows: First crew: stroke, Morgan; 7, Severance; 6, Bacon; 5, Richardson; 4, Lunt; 3, Tappan; 2, Farley; bow, Wiggins; cox., Whitney. Second crew: stroke, Ball; 7, Amberg; 6, Bacon; 5, Emmons; 4, Richards; 3, Corbett; 2, Mulligan; bow, Ellis; cox., Arnold.

Long hard rows with frequent spurts have been given to the graded crews during the past week, in preparation for the race next Friday. The men are still hanging badly at the catch, but Coaches Vail and Stephenson expect another week will do away with the ragged work of the more inexperienced men. As the result of a race in the basin yesterday between the first and second Weld crews, which was won by the second crew, there will be several changes in the orders of these boats today.

Fifty-three men compose the Freshman crew squad at present. Next week, probably on Monday, two crews will be formed and sent out on the river in barges. Several new men of experience reported during the week to Coach Wray
