VARSITY, JAYVEE CREWS HAVE HARD WORKOUTS

Eights Cover Seven Miles in Morning, Ten Miles in Afternoon--Combination And Freshman Sprint

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Red Top, Conn., June 16--Consistent with the theory that the week before the Yale race is the one in which the real work is done, and improvement made, the Varsity and Jayvee crews took an unusually hard workout this morning, followed by another stiff paddle in the afternoon. In the morning spin, the eights covered about seven miles in all, rowing down stream, while in the afternoon, for the first time this year, they rowed five miles upstream and back, almost to Norwich for a change of scenery.

Coach Haines spent the day with the Freshman and Combination boats, trying to work up to a high stroke by means of short, fast stretches, and severals sprints at a good clip.

The times for the Freshman and Jayvee, races in the morning of Friday, June 24, have been changed to 10.30 and 11 o'clock, Daylight Saving Time, respectively, on account of the southwest wind which usually blows up around 11 o'clock.

A. H. Parker '07, and Guy Bancroft '02 paid a visit to the quarters today.
