Harvard Shifting Her Crew Again-Their
First Row In the Shell.

First Row In the Shell.
CAMBRIDGE. April LOAN important change
was made In the Harvard varsity crew to- day.
Bert Waters. "a. was moved from No. 8 back
to No Z. and Blake. "a. who has been rowing
&C No. Z. took Waterss old position at No. s.
The change was the result OF the combined
judgments Of Coach Perkins and Mayor Ban
croft who has been diligent follower OF tho
crew throughout the vacation. This Is the
third time that Waters has been tried at No. 2
since he began to row some three weeks ago.
The constant shifting about and alternating
OF Waters and Blake has apparently been due
to Walters,s slowness In getting into rowing
form. He is tn Q only man who seems to have
the making OF the proper person for No. 2.
and the coachers are evidently bent on work
ing him into that position.
The crew resumed their work to-day after an
interval OF two days rest, and they mark ed the
beginning OF their long spring training by TAX
They were coached In the m orning aud after
noon by Bancroft and Perkins. A part Of the
afternoon was spent rowing In the barge,
while photographer took some snap shots OF
the men unknown to them. These will be de-
veloped and magnihed TO bring out the tndiyid-
by actual ~ seeing them the men will be bet
ter able to correct themselves. Later In tho
afternoon the crew again took to the shell. and
probably from now on will do all their rowing
In II. On tho whole the men kept the boat
pretty we'll on her keel. and in view OF the fact
that Il was the first attempt in the shell. the
result was fairly satisfactory.
and class crews will again begin to row once
instead OF twice day.
