LIVE UPDATES: Pro-Palestine Protesters Begin Encampment in Harvard Yard
Captain Finlay could not keep his appointment with the candidates for the crew yesterday afternoon because he was engaged in carrying out a plan which will be of great benefit to the men trying for the crew, in view of the increased practice it will give them in rowing on the water.
The water around the Shawmut Boat Club house at South Boston is free from ice nearly all winter and offers splendid opportunities for rowing. The Shawmut Club has very kindly consented to leave their floats down during the winter, and will allow the 'varsity crew to keep a boat there and use the boat house as often as they please. Yesterday afternoon a crew composed of Herrick (stroke), Finlay, Tilton, Perkins, '91, Winthrop, Parker, '91, Cumnock, and Storrow (bow)-J. Storrow, L. S., cox-rowed down through the bridges and around to the Shawmut boat house, where they left the boat.
It is the intention of Captain Finlay to have the men row twice a week, if possible, on the harbor and the rest of the time in the tank. The Shawmut Club is only forty-five minutes ride in the horse cars from Harvard Square.
