Browne and Nichols Sink Freshman 150-Pound Crew

1937 Puts Up Game Battle Despite Broken Rigger

Rowing a fairly fast time for rough water the Browne and Nichols crew defeated the first Freshman 150-pound crew by three lengths in the race Saturday afternoon over the regulation Henley course. The Black and White crew was a half length ahead after the first half-mile when the 150 crow's No. 7 man caught a minor crab and although he recovered from it the strain later caused the rigger to break, making the car utterly useless. The time for the winning boat was seven minutes and seventeen seconds for the mile and five-sixteenths.

The lineups were as follows:

Browne and Nichols: cox. Babb; stroke, Watson; 7, Butler; 6, Guernsey; 5. Minot; 4, Vaughn; 3. Johnstone; 2, Lane; bow, Woodman.

Freshman 150's: cox, Carmann Newberry; stroke, George E. Rall; 7, Mark H. Dall; 6, Edward Wigglesworth, Jr.; 5, Dunbar Carpenter; 4, Robert R. Gardiner; 3, Edward T. Gignoux; 2, Joseph W. Wilshire, III; bow, Robert C. Lea, Jr.
