ciaily Jim Rice is the head coach Of
Columbia University's rowing crews,
and acting in his official capacity he
has made for himself a name in that
branch of sport which is second to
none. Each year his first task is to
build up the physiques of eight young
men to stand the wearing rigors Of
the grueling four mile races. and with
the limited material he has TO work
upon Rice has in the past worked
wonders. OF course his crews have
never approached the performance of
those of Cornell. but when one takes
into consideration the plentiful sup
ply of material for crews that Cornell

of his sterling qualities that his
