COACH WHITESIDE STRESSES THE ESSENTIALS WITH JAYVEES

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Harvard Crew Headquarters, Red Top, Conn., June 11--As a result of yesterday's time trials, both the University and Jayvee crews were restricted to light workouts, going through their paces in both morning and afternoon at a low pace.

In the morning, with a moderate breeze and continued cold and rainy weather conditions, the University and Jayvees went two miles downstream and returned at a low stroke. After the two boats had reached the boathouse, Coach Whiteside took the Jayvees on for an additional mile, stressing the essentials. The 1934 and combination boats rowed about three miles downstream, covering the distance in short, fast stretches. The return was made in the same fashion, with neither of the crews sustaining a high stroke for more than a short distance.

This afternoon, the conditions were improved, with smooth water and the sky clearing off for the first time this week. For a change, the University and Jayvee boats went upstream, covering about seven miles in all, but never rowing at more than a low stroke. The two other crews practically repeated their morning performances, going downstream another two miles, and then returning at the same pace. The eights devoted their work to short spurts of speed, at no time maintaining a steady high stroke.

After the last final examinations tomorrow, the camp will return to the use of Daylight Saving Time, which has not been kept since the start of exams.
