W. H. Davy of Cambridgeport is building the new shell to be used by the University crew in the race with Yale at New London. The dimensions are: length, 63 feet; beam, 23 inches; depth, 9 5-8 inches; bow, 7 inches; stern, 6 1-2 inches. The shell resembles that built by Davy for the winning crew in 1899, but has several new features. The stern is to be deeper than usual, so that no fin is needed and the keel will be made very rigid by means of trusses supported by brass bolts. Hollow steel out-riggers which are much lighter and stronger than the ordinary kind will be used. The shell will weigh between 250 and 260 pounds. It will be finished about June 1. Two sets of oars for the boat are being made by W. W. Ruddock of New York.
