Middies In Final Spin

For the first time this week the
crews were able to row on the Sew
ern yesterday afternoon, the previous
practice being confined to the quieter
waters of College Creek. Though
there was a stiff breeze during the
afternoon. Glendon took his second
and varsity crews up the river to the
regular racing course, and Glendon,
Jr., did the same with his plebes.
But before the practice was over the
river became so rough that it was de-
termined not to make the return trip
in the shells, so the craft were left
up river over night.
The official weighing of the Navy
varsity oarsmen shows that the aver
age is just over 179 pounds, which is
almost exactly that of the published
figures of the Princeton crew. Har-
ward is probably little less. Appar-
emily, the Navy oarsmen are in won
derful condition, the boating of the
crew has not leen changed during
the season, and they have had no set
back of any kind
