‘The Architect of the Whole Plan’: Harvard Law Graduate Ken Chesebro’s Path to Jan. 6
The change in the order of the University crew yesterday comes as a great surprise to almost the entire undergraduate body. The substitution of a new stroke is always a step of the greatest significance and danger, as it necessarily involves the whole crew's adjusting itself to a new rhythm. The shift yesterday appears more radical, when it is considered that it involves every seat in the boat except bow and 4, while that last spring affected only stroke and 6.
There are, however, two points which make the change less extreme than it may appear. Sergeant has had nearly two whole seasons' experience as stroke in the University boat, and four members on the present crew have rowed behind him before. Again, Coach Way's judgment in making last year's change after the crew had reached New London was proved sound by the victory which followed. Although the present shake-up is more general, we can only hope that it will prove as effective and successful as that of last year.
