The first of the inter-dormitory bumping races will be rowed this afternoon over the same course as last year. The race will start at the long stretch above the Boylston street bridge beyond the second bend, and, instead of finishing at this bend as was originally planned, the race will continue to the Newell boathouse and end between it and the range flags placed on the opposite bank. The crews will row in two divisions, starting at 3.30 and 4 o'clock respectively, and will take their positions in the following order:
First division--1, Mt. Auburn street; 2, Claverly; 3, Beck-Hampden-Fairfax; 4, Randolph; 5, Thayer; 6. Westmorly; 7, Weld.
Second division--1, Perkins; 2, Brentford; 3, Russell; 4, Ware; 5, Dunster-Dana-Drayton; 6, Bow street; 7, Second Claverly.
Rules and Regulations.
The crews will line up for the start 60 feet apart from bow to stern, the starting positions being indicated by buoys, placed in the river at the proper intervals. Number one in each division will be farthest down-stream. A series of three shots will be fired for a starting signal. Between the first and second shots there will be two minutes, and between the second and third one. The third shot will be the signal for the start. Referees will be stationed along the shore, and bumps will be signaled either through a megaphone or by a pistol shot. As soon as the signal is given, both the bumping and the bumped crews will drop out.
It is important that the coxswains study the chart of the river and observe the rules. All bumps must be made on the outside. Each crew must keep to the inside course in rounding a curve, to give the crew behind a chance to bump. A crew disregarding this rule will be considered bumped.
All men must report at the boathouses, dressed to row, promptly at 2.45 o'clock. The first division will be started promptly at 3.30, and any crew not at its buoy by that time will be considered out of the race. There will be two days of bumping races, after which the four best crews will be picked for a one and one-half mile straight-away race in "the basin."
The Officials.
The following men will act as officials, and must report at the Newell boathouse at 3 o'clock bringing pistols with them if possible: Coach Wray, Captain Waid, E. C. Bacon '10, G. H. Balch '12, R. W. Cutler '11, H. Forster '11, F. Higginson '12, R. F. Hooper '11, F. H. Leslie '12, C. Loring '10, A. Strong '12, J. Waite '11, R. Whitney '11, and J. G. Wiggins '12.
The Filley Cup.
The Filley Cup presented by B. A. G. Fuller '00, in the autumn of 1906 as a perpetual challenge cup to be competed for annually and to be held by the winner one year, will again be awarded to the winning crew this year. This cup has been won by Claverly twice and Mt. Auburn street once. At present Randolph, Claverly, Mt. Auburn street and Russell seem to have nearly equal chances.
