By

Four Seniors, two of whom are veterans of last year's first University crew, three Sophomores from the first and second Freshman eights of last season, and one Junior who rowed in the first boat in the Yale race last June comprise the first University eight which had its initial workout on the Charles River yesterday afternoon.

S. W. Swaim '31 who was selected last Saturday to set the pace for the first crew is backed up by four heavy men, W. T. Emmett '29 at No. 7; F. A. Clark '29 at No. 6; M.M. Johnson '31 at No. 5; and A. N. Webster '31, who is pulling the No. 4 oar. Emmett and Clark have both had previous experience in first University crews, Johnson never advanced beyond No. 5 in the second Freshman crew last year, while Webster rowed at No. 7 in the first Freshman crew.
